Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

We trust him
Dr. Pittard is knowledgeable, patient, kind , and always smiling. We trust him with our children.

Very unprofessional. soley focused on us buying medical equipment. Ignored our concerns at every visit. Passionate on getting my child on different medicines when we weren't even having a problem in those areas.

Dr Pittard and his staff took extremely great care of my daughter when she wasn’t feeling well. Dr Pittard even ordered additional tests to be completed, and when the hospital never reached out to us for the results, it was Dr Pittard who called me on a weekend to tell me the diagnosis. Don’t find many doctors that will do that today!

Dr. Pittard is the best. He cares about his patients and provides the best care possible. He does not rush you when you have questions about your child. He builds a relationship with your child as well.... allowing he or she to ask questions if the have any. Hands down the best in Columbia and his staff is wonderful as well.

Dr. Pittard was our children's pediatrician when he was practicing in Summerville, SC. He was an excellent pediatrician and always answered our questions, and if he didn't know the answer (rarely), he would research and give us a call back. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is fortunate enough to be in his area.

Dr. Pittard and his staff have went above and beyond for us and our son since the day that we had our meet and greet. We have had a couple of questions that were simply answered by sending over a picture or a video and receiving a call back with his professional opinion -- So helpful! He is very personalable and has calmed our "first time parent" nerves time and time again. We couldn't ask for a more thorough and caring doctor for our son!
