Patient Comments

June 11, 2021Met initially with the fellow, then the Dr. Both were very friendly, professional, attentive, and courteous.
May 5, 2021great
February 23, 2021The provider Dr.Jeffrey Balduzzi who assisted Dr. Leslie Christiano was very disrespectful in my opinion. He came in the room spoke briefly and basically asked why my son was there. My sons pediatrician referred him to this office and the doctors acted like we were not suppose to be there. They constantly asked why allergy partners could not see him and run tests. They informed me that Allergy Partners could do the same thing that they could. I informed them that I was not a physician so I would not know this. Had I known that they could do the same thing .I would have contacted my child's pediatrician and went just there. His pediatrician was aware that he sees Allergy Partners for asthma. They still chose to send him to to this new facility to see this physician. Neither physician at this facility did a physical examination they just talked about doing labs and changing meds. I've never experienced such disrespect. If the physicians at this facility felt that my child should have continued with Allergy Partners .They should have informed my child's pediatrician. This way they could inform me before driving to this location. Dr. Leslie Cristiano was ok she talked better than the other doctor . My opinion was she could have came in did her own physical examination on my child . She basically came in and agreed with the other doctor . One of them could have at least pretended to care and do a physical examination.The visit was pointless . I'm glad they at least did labs. If physicians are over worked or irritated with patients it shouldn't be noticeable. I've never had this type of experience with Novant they provide remarkable care. Hopefully this can change in the future with Wake Forest Baptist Physicians.

January 27, 2021I am very impressed with Dr. Cristiano - she solved a skin problem that I have been dealing with all year and in prior years - neurogenic itch.
