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.

Refusal of Medication
I was called a liar due to what I put on my forms as school has no behavioral. His teacher put he does fidget in his seat! She will not prescribe him and ADHD medication! And also said he no longer has it and put he has a history of ADHD! My son wants a drivers license! He can’t even concentrate while riding a bike! And because of his ADHD falls all the time! This Doctor should not be practicing medicine any more! Nothing worse than a So called Doctor with horrible bedside manner! With holding Much needed medication From an Autistic boy with ADHD!!!! This is why She said 90 percent of Doctor Pietrucha patients have gotten off medication! Or The Truth!!! 90 Percent of Doctor Pietruchas patients she is with holding Medication from them! Ugh I have an appointment not till July with a new Doctor!

Terrible and unprofessional! Makes you do tests and evaluations in order to get your child medication. When everything is completed still won’t prescribe and makes you start whole process again. She has no real treatment plan!

I was not happy with Dr. Karia at all. I started visiting her in December of 2018 and to this day, October 2019, my condition has gotten worse. She has misdiagnosed me, been very condescending and rude, has forgotten about medications she prescribed to me, has given me several medications that were ineffective and has not listened to a word I said. She has also lied to my father about my medications several times and has prescribed with costly MRIs that were unnecessary. I had my 7th appointment with her this morning and I will never be visiting her again.

She and the office in Jackson are amazing. She is very through and makes you feel quite safe. She answers any and all questions even when you think they are silly or even if you ask the same ones every visit like me! She truly cares about the children as well as the parents. I am very thankful we found her and i will send everyone who needs a pediatric neurologist to her.

She may be knowledgeable, but I found her to be rude and condescending to both me and my son. We won't be going back because we did not feel comfortable with her bedside manner.
