Dr. Bradley Jones, MD

My daughter has moderate to severe asthma. She was having a hard time breathing and her inhaler was not helping. She also had a sore throat and said it hurt to swallow. Dr. Jones was the only doctor available for same day appointment. Nurse took her temp and to our surprise it was 101.1 Dr Jones walks in and ask 'has she been taking her preventive inhaler?' Not like she should, I reply. His response is 'well I can't help you, not going to give her any steroids if she's not willing to use her preventive.' I asked about the fever, he said does she have a fever? Didn't even bother to look at her chart before he came in. Told me to make an appointment with her usual Dr. the next day. He did not check her oxygen levels, test for covid, or strep. He did listen to her breath but for no longer than 10 seconds. His conclusion was probably allergies or virus then he just left on to the next appointment. Found out later that she was having a reaction to a medication prescribed 4 days earlier.

Not trying to be bitter about him but honestly he’s a worn out pediatrician. Throughout all the visits we’ve had with Dr. Jones, I felt as if he didn’t care about my child as much as other providers within the facility. During my son’s appointments he was always late (the max we’ve waited was two hours), cancels appointments at the last minute and when it’s time to see children he’s always hesitant to leave the room and difficult to get in touch with when having questions. During visits, he brings his laptop and refers my son’s conditions to websites as opposed to his own career experience as a pediatrician. He also made multiple negative remarks towards my son’s cultural background during three visits; Not sure as to why he’s still practicing since he lost all passion for his career.
