Dowd Medical Associates Pediatrics

I have been bringing my baby to Dr. Ganesh at Dowd for a few months and I cannot sing their praises enough. They are extremely prompt and thorough. I also feel like my questions and concerns get taken seriously and they provide helpful and realistic information. When I call with issues, they are quick to call me back. I have been able to schedule sick visits easily on short notice. I had several friends, neighbors and coworkers recommend Dowd and I am soooo glad I chose them for my first child.

I also saw Dr. Corwin and Michael when my doctor was out, and I found them extremely professional and helpful to work with. Honestly I don't think you can go wrong with any of the doctors at Dowd. I already referred a friend to them.

My wife and I have been taking our three daughters here for 18 years. The experience has been nothing short of wonderful. All of the doctors and nurses are excellent. I would never consider taking my children anywhere else. I would highly reccomend them to anyone looking for a pediatric practice.

Both of our children go here. Dr. Curdo is very knowledgable, down to earth and friendly. Nurse Katie is also awesome. So glad we picked Dowd 7 years ago when our son was born!

Dr Curdo and nurse Katie have been incredible and I'm so happy to have them care for my children. Dr. Curdo is always happy to answer questions and actually explains what is happening and why. I have never felt rushed, and always leave with helpful parenting "hacks" or helpful tips. My son had horrible reflux for the first few months of his life and I credit dr. Curdo for preventing him from needing medication and for preventing GERD. Also, my kids are amazing sleepers, which is something Dr. Curdo helped my with when I was trying to sleep train.
I highly recommend this practice!

My kids were delivered by Dowd Medical and then they were there pediatricians until they were 18. Dowd OBGYN has been my Dr.s for 30 years. Good people!

I really can’t say enough about the care my daughters receive at Dowd. Great providers and super responsive

I went here as a child and choose to take my own children here. They are fantastic! It feels like a family.

Amazing doctors who are always available and responsive and great with kids. The best!!

I've had nothing but a great experience here I would highly recommend it to my friends and family.

We love the practitioners at Dowd - they are caring, attentive, and patient. Their front office staff are lovely as well. We really like that they are open even on weekends and holidays!
Their billing office staff however are UNBELIEVABLY rude, impatient, and condescending. If you can avoid interacting with this particular staff member I highly encourage you to do so. I would happily give a 5 star review to Dowd Pediatrics if it were not for the incredibly negative interactions both my husband and I have had with this individual on several occasions.

Dr. Curdo is a five-star pediatrician, and Nurse Katie is also exceptional. The practice is larger than them though, and we've had a variety of experiences, including with the administrative team.

Friendly doctors/nurses, but don't plan on this office keeping any of your appointments. Every year, every appointment I make for all 3 of my children gets moved. There isn't much consideration for patients time nor schedule.

Just not friendly. I was always made to feel like I was "just a nervous mom". Many times I would be told to wait it out and I'd put pressure to be seen and it would infact be something, such as strep, pneumonia. I finally made a change when my child was sick for 4 months straight, being seen every couple weeks. I just kept being told the same thing "oh just a kids virus it will run its course ".. After months of this I got a second opinion... Not a virus....My child had a bacterial infection that required antibiotics and steroids.. There just is a lack of nurturing. We were patients for 3.5 years and finally had to make a change.

Your child is just a statistic to Dowd
If you value your child’s health and welfare, do not waste your time with this practice. This practice does not believe in a parental rights, and will not hesitate to let you know your kid is not your own. This practice and its unfriendly doctors will insist that your child have shots that are not required and, when questioned, will not hesitate to belittle you. Direct quote when confronted with side effect facts as a result of the unnecessary shots “THE BENEFITS OUT WAY THE RISKS!” Not a place to trust with the health and well-being of children.

I've been a patient off and on of Dowd Medical since 1984. Mr Dowd delivered my first and only child and his wife was his pediatrician. Back in those days care was great. Fast forward 2017. I'm gushing blood. GUSHING. My periods stopped over 5 years ago. My PCP told me to call my gyno and get in right away. I have new insurance that they don't take. (only a few weeks old) BUT IM ABLE TO USE AND BILL the old insurance for a total of 90 days!!!!! They could have confirmed that with a simple phone call to medicare but NO They refused to see me. 33 year relationship DOWN THE TUBES! All you ladies reading this. You know how important it is to get in right away if your gushing blood after not bleeding for years. I highly suggest finding a new gyno or you might find yourself in my position some day. Now off to find an emergency gyno. My 1 mandatory star given is for the senior Dowd's. May they RIP.

Rude staff. Doctors aren’t very nice, tend to be rude to patients and raise their voice at them.
Every experience I’ve had here has been miserable and unpleasant. Find somewhere else to go!
