Dr Bertha Cabrera

It’s a shame that some have had a negative experience with Dr. Cabrera. If you have, then you have not given her an opportunity to do what she does best… Be your child’s pediatrician. She has a diverse patient base, many with behavioral issues… I’ve witnessed this myself. One thing is to be «rude» its an other thing completely having to defend oneself, even from a patient (remember children’s ages do range from 0 – 18). Parents, don’t forget, can also be ignorant and dismiss the recommendations given by a board certified physician for the well being of the children she treats. My children have been treated by Dr. Cabrera for over 10 years now, and I pray she doesn’t retire until after my children come of age. No other physician has treated my kids like she does. She knows them, remembers them. Knows how to speak to them. Knows what questions to ask. My preteen son trusts her… And that speaks volumes. When it comes to my children, I want to hear the truth so I know how to best follow up and care for them. I trust her opinion, know she won’t skimp on their care. I don’t have to fight and argue with my kids for a doctors appointment. They love seeing her… Even on a year when immunizations are due. I have complex kids… One with autism, another with cerebral palsy, and even though they have other specialists, all coordination of care is done through her. Her medical opinion is the one I trust the most because she KNOWS my kids and KNOWS they don’t fall into a textbook medical category. She fights for my kids so that their care is specific to them, not to a statistically typical patient base as determined by an insurance provider. You may value modern, pretty clinics and politically correct, fake smiles and scripted salutations. If so… Find another pediatrician’s office so that she has even more availability for patients who value more from their doctor.

DO NOT take your child to this so called pediatrician! First time I saw her she was yelling at her staff about files not being properly organized, her staff were blaming each other all of this while I was clearly visible in the waiting room.
The yelling does not stop, from the waiting room I start hearing her yell at the top of her lungs followed by a child crying!!! She starts yelling at the top of her lungs «YOU DONT DO THAT YOU HEAR ME, AY!!» I look up to the front desk and all the 3 staff members just look at me and are so embarrassed they just look down. She was yelling at her patient, A CHILD! She needs to be reported! I was out the front door and my children were not and WILL NEVER be seen by her.

Dr Cabrera is rude, unprofessional, & aggressive to the point of being scary. The office is dirty, the rooms are outdated and the office staff is horrible. The ladies at the front desk are rude who wont even give you so much as a smile. The wait is at least an hours for a scheduled appointment.
