Dr. Oltra is so kind and patient. She gets my stubborn, demand-avoidant, anxious kid to sit still and participate in the exam, which is nothing short of a miracle. She understood and addressed all my concerns. She's efficient and timely but we never felt rushed. I'm grateful we found her!

She gives the impression that she cares just as much about your kid as you do. That's GOLD. Plus, she is super smart. I trust her. My kid adores her.

She didn’t even check the previous charts. After her exam, she declared that my child didn’t need a new prescription. I told her he already got a new prescription 3 months prior and that he was there for a follow up on his medication. SMH.

Apr-2019
Dr. Oltra did not clean her hands before she began examining my child. Initially, did not explain what she was doing clearly to my child, did she attempt to gain his/her trust. Needs to adhere to cleanliness and improve her approach with children.
