I was blown away by the quick care we received in an emergency situation.

The doctor is definitely knowledgeable but his bed side manner could use some work especially when talking to children

The doctor was very informative and put us at ease by making jokes.

I like how the provider was clear on answering questions. I did not like when I was asked questions, being interrupted and asked another question to my child. I didn't feel fully listened to/heard as I was sharing my concerns. Would feel more comfortable if I was heard. Otherwise all else was great.

Seems like an excellent doctor, we are happy with the treatment. My son did get upset and was in some pain during the appointment and I do wish the doctor and his assistants/techs had prepared him/us and had been more compassionate when he was upset. The doctor explained everything well so that we, the parents could understand but he spoke quickly and more to us than our child (who is old enough to understand and participate). Overall it was a good experience and I would recommend him, because he seems like an excellent doctor. Just would have appreciated a little bit more warmth when dealing with children.

I think this provider is good at what he does, however, he has an extremely dry bedside manner, which makes it difficult to converse at much length. He's seen both my children now & while I feel they are getting great care, it's intimidating for them to be around him, express their concerns/opinions, etc.

Dr. Umberhandt did nothing to acknowledge my daughter or me. He did nothing to explain or comfort my tough kid and was rude to her. Medically he was great but his bedside manner was atrocious.

This provider did not speak with compassion to my daughter. He told her that she was making it worse by crying so much. His assistant said "oh, it can't hurt that much". The experience of fitting her boot was excruciating in the office. This is because they did it while her foot was sitting resting on the break. No attempt was made to do it in any more gentle manner or in any other way. However, at home we were able to do just that. I feel that this office does not care about the discomfort of my daughter. Even though I understand that some discomfort is expected. They did not take her pain level seriously. And there was no reason for her to be in that much pain while in their office.

He is knowledgeable and treated me with respect, and asked lots of questions. My parents had a lot more information that they could have given him about my injury, but he didn't let them speak much and only talked to me. I didn't know how to answer some questions.

The provider was very knowledgeable but spoke in medical jargon to my child. She did not understand half of what was said, although after care instruction to her was understandable. My child felt he did not hear her when she express pain upon exam and he actually continued to hurt her.

It was not the best experience, the provider was saying these disrespectful comments and gestures to me and my brother, when he asked me if I know what i'm doing yet after school he responded "mmm good education going to someone who doesn't know what you going to do with like yet" and he asked my brother what he does and he said he sells phones and the provider just said like a "mm" he was really disrespectful to me and him I would prefer to have someone for my next appt

Very good experience. Good sense of humor and Common sense. I like Dr Bob. He was pretty cool.

The doctor and resident were very kind, compassionate and understanding. The exam was thorough, and I appreciated Dr. Bob's attempt to distract me from the pain. He had a good sense of humor which made the appointment enjoyable. He explained everything to me in depth, including x-ray findings, and clearly laid out the next steps.

As a nurse, I was impressed that the doctor was running the back office completely by himself. No MA or nurse made it to clinic that day due to inclement weather. We had to wait longer but I appreciate Dr. Bob continuing to provide care despite the tough circumstances.

Rude provider, cannot believe he works specifically with pediatrics. Awful!
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
The doctor is clearly knowledgeable and expert, and we had no doubt that we were receiving excellent care. However, he seemed a bit dismissive of our questions and concerns.

Although I am sure Dr. Bob Is a very good clinician his bedside manner was significantly lacking. He was condescending and rude. Also, the other Dr in the room knew about the previous foot fracture where Dr Bob did not. The staff and other Dr were great and we have never had anything but positive experiences in the past with other providers.

He was very condescending to my daughter. He made her feel very uncomfortable b/c of his dry sense of humor. Most kids dont't understand how to work with this type of personality. I had to itteruupt and tell him my daughter is dyslexic and the jokes aren't funny.

Provider was helpful with insight into the issue.
The DO who came in before the doctor we saw was amazing! Friendly and explained things to my son so he understood and even showed him the X-rays. The receptionist who checked us in was very friendly and inviting. I was impressed!
