  I have been contemplating on whether to write a review for this practice or not, but I would like to warn other mothers of this pediatric and share my experience. I was new to florida and just had my first baby and the hospital said that Dr. Maria E. Mora was recommended for my area, so I went with her as my child's primary physician. As a child, I had acid reflux as a baby and I was very worried as my son was showing symptoms and having trouble with choking during the night in the hospital. At his first visit a few days after he was born, I brought this up and she brushed it off and said it was nothing to be concerned about and that it was probably just being a scared new mother. So the next visit, she was nice, but the next visit, each concern I would bring up, she'd brush them off again. My son had to be taken to the hospital because he had a fever over 102 at 3 months so they ran a catheter through his penis and took blood and found out he also had an ear infection. So they said to follow up with his PD so the next day, I took him to Dr. Maria and of course he was sore, but she yanked his Penis skin down and made him bleed! I was very upset about this, but to top it off, she didn't even check his ears which was what he was there for!! I was furious. After a few weeks or month, my son became very ill and wouldn't eat like he should (breastfeed) and had a very stuffy nose and cough so I scheduled an appointment and brought him in. Dr. Maria examined him and asked how often I was feeding him (he was almost 4 months) and I told her I feed him on demand but usually every 2 hours or less. She then said to wait every 3 hours to feed him even if he's hungry, to make sure my breasts get full. By this point I was very upset because I did not come in for her to critique how often I nurse him, but because he WASN'T nursing and was clearly sick. I left and immediately called around at other Pediatrics and found one called Angel Kids Pediatrics which was 45 minutes from my house, but if it would be better for my son, the distance didn't matter. I scheduled an appointment for my son and immediately fell in love. They are so kind and listen to your concerns and have a kid friendly enviornment. Also, they have a separate sick room whereas dr. Maria e mora has one waiting room and there is no color or toys or books. My son continued to stop nursing as often as he should, so I made another appointment to angel kids and they examined him and found out he still had 2 ear infections, but then the doctor said she wanted to check him for a few other things such as RSV since he was having trouble with his nose coughing, and different breathing. The results came back positive for RSV and she gave me lots of information on what to watch for and how serious it is and even gave me a hospital grade nose suction which is the best! Anyways, the rest is more about angel kids and how great they are, but I am thankful that Dr. Maria E mora was my first pediatric experience because if not, I wouldn't be as grateful as I am for finding such a great pediatric such as angel kids. I hope whoever is reading this to take all that I have said into consideration because our children are our lives and deserve the absolute best and my experience was far from that.
