Morgan William S MD

I chose 2 stars based on my experience. I have 2 children, a 4yo boy and 1.5yo girl. Both have been at this office since they were born. I have experienced both the good and bad sides of Dr. Morgan and both great office staff and the ones that you want to run from. Things went from OK to not-​ok at the last few appointments with my daughter. My daughter has a mild eczema on her leg and we had been to Dr Morgan a few times trying to clear it up and finally I’d had enough and took her to a dermatologist. At the next app, I was grilled about the dermatologist and the meds. He made me feel like I was making the wrong choices for my daughter. I then relayed this to the dermatologist and she reassured me that her specialized training trumped his general training in the skin department.
The straw finally broke at the last checkup (a 16 month) when my daughter fell to 50% on the weight curve. She was a late walker, so it took her a little longer to drop some of the chub that most kids drop around 12 – 13 months. But Dr. Morgan would hear none of it. He tried to pressure me to switch her to whole cows milk because he was convinced she wasn’t getting enough fat calories and I was starving her brain and her development would suffer because I’m pumping and giving her breast milk. He equated human milk past 1 year to be similar to skim cows milk in fat content. This floored me. There are SO many studies out there about extended breastfeeding and the benefits of it. That’s when it hit me that I would need to find a new doctor.
He is a very «do it this way» kind of guy. If you want to be ordered around by your doctor, he’s great for you. If you want to have a conversation and for the doctor to really involve you in the care of your kid, he is not the doctor for you.
As for the office staff. There is one girl there that is great. The rest are ok, and the last one we saw was awful. I was constantly asking her to repeat herself because I couldn’t understand her. I was also forced to interpret what she meant because what she said didn’t always match. Now, try to do that with an upset toddler. Not a fun experience. Oh, and she gave ALL the shots in the SAME dime sized area on my daughters legs. My daughter was traumatized. I couldn’t lay her down to change her diaper without her screaming bloody murder and fighting me for 2 days.
Needless to say we’ve changed doctors.

My kids and I love Dr Morgan. My son is 5 and been with him since he was 1. My daughter now goes there too. The staff is also amazing

Dr. Morgan is such a wonderdul Pediatrician. My family have been patients of his private practice for the last 13 years and we have recommended many people to his practice. As a mother of four children, it is so comforting to have such a caring, honest and intelligent doctor there for us whenever we need him.

Dr. Morgan had the coldest, condescending, judgmental manners I’ve come across in the medical field. Dr, Morgan did not have one ounce of compassion or warmth towards my children or myself regarding there medical issues. After one vista he sat in judgment of me, my children, and my views on my children’s medical issues i decided to never go back to his office. He wanted to condemn me as a parent rather than work on a solution for my kids. I defiantly would warn all parents if your children have any type of ADD, or special needs, all he will do is recommend medications. I ended up finding a different pediatrician who worked with me and my kids and things have really taken on some positive changes in there lives.

The doctor is rigid and can be condescending and insensitive. In addition, I never before had office staff be so rude to me — not just rude, but disdainful, even mocking. Especially the person who sits at the front and represents the entire office. This is the person who also puts the needle in your child for immunizations. This office made mistakes on a lab request, causing a difficult test to be for nothing. They gave me an attitude about my insurance and then failed to rebill it as I requested. When an immunization wasn’t done on time, I found out that they had suggested to the nurse practitioner that we (the parents) had refused it. Meanwhile, we had not been offered it. I found out that the doctor had put in referrals for us, but no one informed us about who were supposed to call, so I found out later when referred through another pediatrician that my child’s file was sitting and waiting on the desk and the doctor to whom we’d been referred was wondering why we hadn’t contacted her. This isn’t even a complete list of everything that we had go on through this office. We changed to a pediatric group and a new pediatrician and the contrast was amazing. It was like a return to sanity after being in a bizarre Twilight Zone where you don’t even understand why you are being treated so poorly.

I really love Dr. Morgan and his wife. They take their time with my son, offer good suggestions and spend time talking with my husband and I.
I gave minus 1 star because the front desk people are VERY uncoordinated, unreliable and many times not very friendly. I’ve had multiple negative experiences where they don’t return phone calls, don’t explain things well and one time I went to the office for an appointment and the office was closed — they failed to inform me of this and didn’t return my message inquiring about why this occurred.
I will continue to come back because I really love the doctor but they really need better help in the front.

It was obvious from the start this Dr. wasn’t going to be a fan of anything I had to say in regards to expressed concern about my son. (I honestly think it was a bit of judgement based off my appearance. Poor taste on his part.) If I mentioned I wanted to change formulas from a milk-​based, to soy-​based because I am lactose intolerant, as is my other son, and feel my baby might be as well; he would lash out on me. If I mentioned his sleep pattern changed or behavior due to his recent vaccinations, it was always a «coincidence». He NEVER lets the client/​parent feel like they have a voice or are being heard, but instead interrupts and tells you how wrong you are are and even goes so far to say its «bad parenting». When I mentioned my son is possibly having digestive issues because he tosses and turns every night and has yet to sleep through the night since birth, and isn’t chewing his food properly and appears to have stomach pains. So, I changed his eating routine and took him off solids before bedtime and stop giving him milk [yet again (and now he’s sleeping a lot better). His response? «It’s a coincidence» and that it was simply «bad parenting» that he wasn’t sleeping, and we hadn’t sleep trained him by now, etc. Just frustrating to have a Dr. not at least pretend to let the parents voice be heard. I understand some Dr’s are ALL for vaccinations and pro-​milk, but at least let the parent feel like they know their child’s demeanor better than you give them credit for. Especially a second time mother. Simply ridiculous!

Dr. Morgan has always been a wonderful doctor for my sons. He has a wonderful demeanor that is calming and professional making my children at ease on all their doctor visits. I highly recommend Dr. Morgan to care for any of my friend’s children.
