Pediatric Specialists Franklin

"I have loved this practice and recommended to every new mother I know but I will no longer be doing that. I moved over an Hour away and still chose to take my children here. I put up with sitting in a room an hour before the doctor would come in. Every single time I call in to make or cancel an appointment now I catch an attitude. Ever since they have been hiring new employees it has been awful. They are rude and not personable at all. Kindness goes a long way and my patience is worn thin. I will be pulling my children immediately"

"A relative of mine planned on telling his pediatrician that he has depression and anxiety. He is a child so he was anxious to say something to his doctor but he bravely let his doctor know about it. We are afraid for his safety due to his mental health issues so we needed the doctor to help him. The doctor quickly responded with “oh, you’re fine.” No assessments, no further questions, nothing"

"My first experience was a wonderful one! Dr. Khalil treated us with so much respect and kindness. I will definitely recommend this facility to anyone who has children and are looking for a great pediatrician. All of the staff here are very warm and friendly. The nurses behind the desk did a wonderful job making us feel welcomed. Thank you so much for a wonderful first experience and I really look forward to building a relationship with Dr. Khalil as my son's pediatrician."

"This place has screwed me over. I have gone there since I was 5 years old and at first, it was decent and we didn't run into any problems. But when I was about 12, they prescribed me onto a medication I took for for six years, and they consistently informed me that it was fine for me to take long-term. When I was 18, they said to me, "I cannot believe you have been on this medication for so long... It is extremely dangerous for your health to take it for more than eight weeks." This, they said, despite the fact that THEY PRESCRIBED ME ONTO IT FOR SIX YEARS. Then, for a separate issue a year later, they prescribed me onto two other medications. Knowing what had happened to me before, I made it a point to ask, "Are these safe to take together?" The doctor assured me that it was totally fine. The next time I go in, a doctor tells me that these two medications are dangerous to take together. Now I have to go to the hospital for expensive tests due to the medication combination. Do not trust the Pediatric Specialists of Franklin County. I'm sure the doctors mean well and are excellent doctors on their own, but it is completely unacceptable for them to let serious issues slip through the cracks when they could have been solved by a little bit of medical research."

"I can’t say enough about the care my daughter has received by Sarah Pentz at Pediatric Specialists. The commitment and compassion that she gives to her patients is immeasurable. It is invaluable to have a physician that you can trust to take care of your child. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone!"
