I have been a com­mu­ni­ty pedi­a­tri­cian for over 20 years at the same prac­tice sub­ur­ban Chica­go. I try very hard to be respon­sive to my patients, answer­ing every ques­tion by the end of the day. My gen­er­al phi­los­o­phy is that the body gen­er­al­ly knows best what to do, and the physi­cian’s role is to rec­og­nize when it is not work­ing prop­er­ly and stay out of the way when it is.

"Dr Pont hardly looked at my sons eye. He tapped it with his finger, he didn't look under the eyelid, in my opinion it was not a thorough examination. My son and I ended up in the ER the next day for treatment because Dr Pont misdiagnosed him and offered no treatment."
