The best. Yes his staff can be less than helpful at times and unfriendly. The waits can be long. He is worth it though. I read the reviews. Some are right. I appreciate the fact that I can joke and have fun with him. But when it comes down to my childrens health he is all business and he knows his business well.

I feel truly blessed to have Dr. Ancona as my pediatrician. His strong dedication to his patients is evident in how he listens to you, makes such an effort to get to know his patients and their parents, so that both his patients and their parents feel comfortable and that they can freely talk and that they are being treated as individuals who are unique, and not just another person on the doctor's schedule for the day.

He was my pediatrician for years, was an ok doctor when I was younger but as I grew older he just came across as more and more creepy. I remember on one occasion he brought a group of med students into the room at what I felt was an inappropriate time. Several uncomfortable moments with this doctor. When I switched to a new doctor at a different practice, the office refused to transfer my medical records unless we paid for them. One big headache!

This doctor is the worst! He makes many inappropriate comments, including racial and gender "jokes", many of which have sexual undertones. Incredibly inappropriate, especially considering that he works with children. I highly encourage you to save yourself the frustration and go somewhere else!

A bit rough around the edges, but a great doctor. He was my pediatrician 20 years ago and actually rushed back to NY from a vacation when I contracted viral encephalitis with the chicken pox. Probably saved my life.

Very Upset with Dr Ancona, he was so rough giving my son his shot> my son immediately got a bruise on his leg and bled, he cried all day that his leg hurt. He literally jabbed the needle in his thigh. No wonder children are petrified of the Dr.

Rudest receptionist I have ever talked to. Hung up on me when I asked to have my child seen for a second opinion.
