Danuta T. Jackson-Curtis's Online Review Report Card

I have given it a fair amount of time and appointments to see if it would get better going here. I had a friend recommend Jackson Danuta. So it sucks that I have had quite the opposite experience than she has had.Every appointment has been a minimum of an hour wait. Recently I was called and asked to reschedule an appointment because they were understaffed. I agreed to do so. Then at the new appointment we had to wait in the car for approximately 1 hr and 25 minutes. I had to leave. My son was screaming by that time. He is 14 months old. They also have done this since at almost every appointment he was 5 months old.My son would scream and cry uncontrollably every single visit. No over exaggerating. Contributing factors were always waiting for so long. He also needed to see a neurologist as recommended by Dr Jackson for behavior and flathead. He cannot sit still and we had to somehow wait that long at every appointmentI had to switch insurance in order to get an appointment at the neurologist. Which is totally fine but it took months. I needed Jacksons office to send a new referral with UPDATED insurance information to the Neurologist in order to keep our appointment. After asking Jacksons office over 6 times we have no updated referral. I have called I have text message proof and had my significant other call as well. My sons Neurologist appointment was today and it had to be missed because Jacksons office has been incompetent and unorganized for the last month and a half.Further delaying my son getting the care he really needs.I will not be going here any longer and do not recommend.

Dr.Danuta is awesome very helpful and knows what she is talking about when it comes to children Definitely recommend

Unbelievable waiting times. EVERY TIME. In one occasion we were waiting for 5hours in the vehicle on the parking lot.

They can’t seem to make or keep appointments. Unorganized is putting it lightly. WE have brought our daughter there since birth. When my daughter started hitting puberty I father was made to feel like a perv for asking about why it looked like she was swollen. Dr Jackson would sit in between me and my daughter purposely blocking my involvement. Being an involved father is not bad but I gave my daughter her space. Fast forward a few years and my daughter and Dr Jackson have a conversation about her private life and she told my wife about it. Breaking HIPA and favoritism shown towards the mother sexism is what is motivating this HORRIBLE” review.

Dr. Jackson is so thorough and so kind. We highly appreciate her attention to detail and her patience and understanding. Wait times in office used to be awful but Dr. Jackson has worked hard to correct that and she has succeeded while still being extremely thorough and spending adequate time with patients and their family.

This office has a happy team, highly efficient, ethical, full of solutions, accommodating and knowledgeable. I was taught and given recommendations.The doctor was great... first that I’ve seen like this and happy that I went.I notice things like this from the person who answers the phones to the receptionist to the nurses to the doctor to the policy to the bedside manner to the recommendations (all great).

I absolutely adore Dr. Danuta, and I’m so grateful to have found her after being with another practice with my daughter. She was the first pediatrician to really take the time to educate me on how to keep my babies healthy. For example, my children were constantly sick prior to being with her practice, as was I, and she instructed us to supplement vitamin D. As soon as we started to do that we went down from about 15 colds per year between us to three colds in a year. Why is it that no other pediatrician had ever taken the time to tell us about methods of prevention? Oh, I know, because my daughter had a dozen sick visits in her first 2 years of life and since seeing Dr. Danuta has had two sick visits in three years. That’s bad business — unless you care about your patients like Dr. Danuta. That’s when I started paying attention and asking more questions to make sure I was getting all the benefit of being with this knowledgeable doctor! She is always thorough and you can tell that she really cares about your child. She is also extremely knowledgeable, she can identify most medical issues immediately. Imagine how it felt to learn that my baby was attended to by a cardiologist in the hospital and the cardiologist did NOT recognize the baby’s heart murmur whereas three days later Dr. Danuta listened to his heart with a stethoscope and identified a murmur in three of four quadrants, so he was able to get referred for appropriate care with a specialist. I filed a complaint with the hospital because I was so angry.My well checks with other pediatricians were about five minutes long. With her it can be 20+ minutes of really looking at my child and letting me know where they are in their milestones, answering my questions. She doesn’t just react to my concerns, she does a thorough look herself and even identifies things that I didn’t notice.If she was taken off of my insurance I would work to pay out-of-pocket to keep taking my kids there because she’s just that wonderful. When I first started coming here 3 years ago, the wait times were really long (and it was still worth it!). But they have a completely streamlined now and I get taken through check in, history and then visit with the doctor very quickly after arriving. And she’s completely worth the 30 minute drive for me!!I am not exaggerating when I say that I regularly pray for her to continue with her practice so she can help me get my little ones through childhood safe and healthy.

I wish I could give them 0 stars. This office is so clueless and unorganized and Dr. Jackson needs to retire before she puts someone's child in jeopardy, like my grandchildren. She has NO IDEA what she is doing. She put my grandchildren on special formula after taking their mother's word that they were allergic to dairy. She didn't have them tested or anything. They both have been underweight and my granddaughter was anemic. She also still had my granddaughter on the formula at 14 months, until I questioned her why when I took them and she them said she didn't need it anymore. Neither one of the children have shown any signs of allergies with their father or us. She also says that my granddaughter should still be rear facing in the car at 14 months when car seat instructions and the law say over 20 pounds and 1 year. When I took them, they tried to collect (from me) for a bill until I had to get my son on the phone and he said there was no balance. They finally realized it was their mistake. I was there for nearly 3 hours that day, with a sick 14 month old and 3 year old. There were staff rushing throughout the office and different faces popping in and out constantly. With the exception of one doctor (I think.... can't remember the name but she has blondish hair) and a student that came in and introduced herself and stayed with us most of the time, no one was friendly or welcoming there. I've been in education for over 20 years and even I know that it's no way to comfort children. That is unacceptable. They also sent me to a place farther north so my grandson could have a chest x-ray. The place wouldn't take him without an appointment and a COVID test. My son wound up taking him the next day to a different location, closer to home, and he had pneumonia, which is what I was afraid of.Don't waste your time here! There are plenty of excellent pediatricians in the area. I had excellent ones for my kids, who knew what they were doing and had very organized offices and records and great staff. Do your research!

I’d definitely give Dr Jackson 5 stars mainly for her thoroughness and expertise.. she accesses all areas of what can possibly be wrong with the kids and just wow, a complete wealth of knowledge! She also respects you as te parent in your decision for your child.However among the pros of the dr wait time is insane. I know that they are hiring new PA’s to help make things more speedy as well. Upon my first initial visits I really did not like many of the intake assistants / nurses (no sure who they were helping) but basically people taking kids vitals and all, many of them seem entirely inexperienced, one lady smelled of smoke, another put a thermometer in the wrong area of my newborn (it was supposed to be rectal and it did not go there as she laughed it off and said “oops”) which I was mortified by and just several other aspects that tuned me off entirely.Wait time and staff need to be adjusted. Front desk ppl seem very accommodating on the bright side
