“Wasn’t very friendly. Kept cutting me off when I tried to speak. Didn’t seem to care about how my daughter has been doing since she was discharged from the hospital a month ago. He told us while she was admitted at St. Rose that she had Infantile Spasms, and didn’t care to run any tests today. Didn’t seem concerned just because a 24 hour EEG 30 days ago showed no seizure activity. Will not be returning. Don’t recommend”
