Anita Sheth Md's Online Review Report Card

She is horrible! She actually argued with me, she should retire!

Actually a 0. Run! Thid doctor is unbelievably awful!! You will be shocked at how awful she is. If you want an unpleasant, fear induced worst EQ of any doctor you have ever seen and worst with pediatrics then see for yourself. Just know you have been warned.

If I could give a 0 I would. All I can say is RUN. I did that with my 12 year old son the other day in her office. She has the worse EQ of any doctor I’ve ever encountered. I’ve encounter a lot too. She told my son to not show her his bump until she was ready to see it. She recommended a biopsy and said she didn’t think it was a serious bump and my son got full of anxiety and tears were streaming down his face. I told him they will numb it and it won’t hurt. Dr. Sheth said it will hurt. He he started getting progressively more anxious and the nurse said this won’t be fun. The nurse then proceeded to get someone to hold him down when he didn’t need it. I grabbed my coat and son and ran out of there. I was so upset I actually told the doctor and nurse that they both suck as I was leaving. I hate being confrontational and it ruined my day. I saw the bad reviews before I came and thought since my sons pcp recommended her it would be ok. It’s not RUN or cancel your appointment ASAP.

Actually a 0. RUN and don’t ever send a child unless you enjoy seeing your child exhibit escalated anxiety and tears. I grabbed my son and ran out of her office. She definitely earns an award for worst EQ. It literally takes talent to be as awful as her. My 12 year old son was full of anxiety and when I said they would numb his arm to shave his bump so it wouldn’t hurt. Dr.Sheth said it will hurt! Her mean nurse said it won’t be fun. The nurse then proceeded to grab someone to hold my son down unnecessarily. I told her that was extreme he doesn’t need it and she said she didn’t want him punching at her when clearly all he had was a sense of nerves and needed more compassion not 2 clowns who were escalating his fears. RUN!!!

Dr. Anita Sheth made me leave in tears. She told me that my 11 year old son was old enough to make his medical decisions. She belittled me as a parent. When we got home, my son as why that doctor was so mean. Should not work with children.

Would not take a child to Dr. Anita Sheth. She told me that was 11 year old son was old enough to make his medical decisions. She belittled me as a parent and I ended up just having to walk out because she upset me so much. I drove 45 minutes to see her and she would do the procedure because my son was nervous. Said she couldn't hold him down even though I never asked her. My son teared up but wasn't acting like he needed to be held down. When we got home, my son asked me why a doctor was so mean.

Horrible bedside manner. Would not recommend for pediatric care. Incredibly condescending and rude. Very unpleasant experience.

Dr Sheth was very curt with my six year old and myself from the start of our appointment. We were referred to her to address a growth on my sons face that has been growing rapidly. She requested proof that it had increased in size, inferring that she did not believe a parents account of the situation. She refused to biopsy the growth saying that she “does what is in the best interest of children”. She then said she was not personally comfortable performing procedures on six year olds faces. She begrudgingly mentioned Children’s Hospital for a potential second opinion after I pressed for someone who could help my child. I explained that I had worked at CCHMC, she asked my position there and asked what my current employment is. Both questions completely impertinent to my child’s best interest and completely confrontational. This is not a pediatric dermatologist that acts in children’s best interests if she refuses to provide care because she is personally uncomfortable.

It needs to be said. She might be well qualified but her bedside manner is lacking. We won’t go back.

Dr. Sheth might be knowledgeable but lacks the bedside manner. We feel so unsatisfied after seeing her. Her behavior is not what you expect from a pediatric dermatology. Adolescence is the age when you have to listen to the insecurities of a kid and show compassion and make them feel important, don’t brush off their concern. She comes off as condescending and mocking our concerns. I will not refer to any of my friends to go see her. Her nurse was more compassionate than her.
