Palmetto Pediatrics PA

Do Not see Bruce Etheridge MD he does not read his patients chart before he gives them medicine. My child is allergic to Amoxicillin and it clearly states that in his medical record. The first time he saw my child he tried to give him that and I said "He is allergic to that if u look in his chart" I let that go. thinking it was an honest mistake. Then my mother had to take my child back 2 weeks later and he gave my child Augmentin (which is Amoxicillin ). which im sure you learn that in medical school. Thank God I have a great Pharmacist and she called the on call dr and they ordered the right type of medicine. Dr Etheridge should be FIRED and not allowed to practice. all these reviews are about how bad he is.

Palmetto Pediatrics has been there for me since the day my twin girls were born. Each doctor provides you with something that you can carry with you throughout raising your children. Dr. West does not believe that medicine is the anwser for everything and most often will try an prove you with an alternate option. Dr. West taught me how to do lung therapy for the girls when hd RSV as another option to medicine. I use this knowledge when I start to hear the rattling mucus in the lungs. I had a terrible experience with Dr. Leonardi while I was still in the hospital, but when I rushed my daughter in for an allergic reaction he was amazing. Dr. Nordby is now our primrary pediatrician now and she is awesome. Dr. Nordby listens to what I have to say, she works with my girls, and she is straight forward with whatever is going on. I ahave recently moved to the Columbia area and will be traveling be to North Charleston anytime my girls need to see a pediatrician.

Dr. Nordby is great. Very knowledgable, willing to answer questions, doesn't rush you and just a sweet and caring doctor. I have never had any problems with the staff or other doctors.

I brought both of my children here for three years. They gave my daughter incorrect shots!!! She was given a veracella shot at 15 months and she wasn't supposed to have another one until she was four. They gave it to her again at 18 months!! Either they gave her a shot she was not supposed to have or they documented it wrong. Either way it is terrible service. I would never recommend this doctors office.
