Bad to worse, (minus 2x stars!) Now I have my chance to repay the rude doctor. I was delighted when I found out he left our children’s practice! After a very sour encounter from the good doctor I requested he never see my children again! Here is the story, you be the judge. I once arrived at the doorstep with a feverous sick six year old child in my arms, asking to see a doctor. Dr. Auerbach was the Doctor in the office. Before entering the building I asked one of his assistants if they could check to see if the doctor would see my son. Because it was five o’clock on a Friday and I though best to ask. She ran inside and back out to me and said, “of course, please, please, come in”. So we did. Just off in the distance was Dr. Auerbach, in clear view of me and my son… he proceeded to say, it’s five o’clock on a Friday and people don’t just show up at the door step without an appointment, saying it clearly loud enough for me to hear him. I replied, but I asked before I came in the building and they told me to come right in. Long story short, he was rude to my face, did not even take a quick look at my child and I had to leave. I replied oudly back to him,” well thank you Doc”.! But that’s not where it ended. He decided to sit down the next day and write me a person insulting letter and mail it to my home. I wish I still had it because I would publish it right here. He goes on to tell me that I had no right to just show up unannounced at that time of day, and that he would not do that to me at my place of business…. And also, that he could tell my son was not really very ill and that it could clearly have waited until the AM, Saturday during regular office hours to have someone see my son. And that was from ten feet away. His letter goes on to call me “Gratuitous, at best” for my reply to him and that surly after I had time to go home and think about what had unfolded I must have seen it his way. This guy is not someone who I would ever take my child to again, this pompous Doctor should close his doors and go back to where he came from. He left a really bad taste in my mouth. But now you know, Dr. Auerbach and Mr. Hide! Good luck.

I love Dr. Auerbach and his entire staff so much that he is our sons pediatrician and we live 35 minutes from the office. They are ALL caring, timely, and informative.
