Gastroenterology Associates Manatee PA

The physician group was nice and knowledgable. The front office staff was quick and well organized. Our appointment was on time, no waiting.

DO NOT GO HERE!!! The office staff is great but the nurse practitioner is beyond rude. HATES CHILDREN!!!
I was belittled for bringing my child with me to my appointment by the nurse practioner. That he was too distracted by my child to help me. I had apologized from the moment I met him about bringing my child, (not like I wanted to do this and he seemed annoyed from the second he seen my child with me.) He gave me nothing but attitude the whole time! I finally asked him «Sir is there a problem?» He said «yeah your child this is a quiet environment and I’m distracted by him being here.»
My husband I just moved here and have no family here and we do not have a babysitter again why would I bring my child if I didn’t have to. The receptionist agreed as she was a single mom! Jackie P. is the great I appreciate her!
Does this guy hate kids? What if he had a kid as a patient who is being rowdy then what he doesn’t treat them? How is this acceptable behavior?
DO NOT GO TO THESE DOCTORS OR any in BLAKE PARK unless you are a senior citizen you will be discriminated on. If you are not a senior citizen they do not care if you have a problem even if you were sent there by another doctor. I Can not stress enough how horrible this experience was, to the fact I walked out of the doctors office!!! I went to the receptionist she was great!
