Dr. Harrington is caring, professional and very knowledgeable, yes she is busy but most good doctors are. I would highly recommend her to friends and family which I have done and will continue to do so that are looking for an experienced, solid pediatrician.

My kids love Dr. Harrington. They appreciate her caring, no-nonsense approach. She answers their questions and speaks to them directly. My teenage son had what appeared to be a hard pimple on his bum. He was embarrassed but Dr. Harrington explained that it was quite common in boys and men. A few days of epsom salt baths and warms compresses and the pimple and pain was gone.

Amazing Pediatrician! Very attentive and caring. I would definetly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a reliable, caring and professional doctor. She may be busy and have alot of patients but I have never felt rushed when she attends to my daughter's appointment. She takes time to answer any questions I may have and provides me with the appropriate information needded. 5 stars!!

Okay some reviews are a little 2 over the top. She is a caring doctor that will ensure your child is taken care of from the medical aspects. She has 3 boys her self so always welling to give advice and knows about kids and their development and ways to help your child or will refer you to a book or a helpful source of info in topics such as good nutrition, behaviour, sleep, education development. Of course she is busy and in my case has to see my 3 kids at one time so it those take time but I don’t mind waiting to get my kids the care they need. I have been going to her for 7 years and I am happy I choose Dr. Harrington for my kids .

I'm thankful to have found Dr. Harrington. She listened to our concerns and knew right away what was happening with my new born. She didn't dismiss our concern as first time parents over reacting and put him on medication right away. Although the wait in the office is long, the care you receive cannot be beat. She is also always able to accommodate last minute urgent appointments.

My son was seeing her from birth until age two. She was punctual and seemed engaged the first time we met her. Every other appointment she would barely say two to three words before rushing off to the next patient. She books too many patients, is rarely punctual and minimum wait is 45 min to over 60 min. I finally got fed up when I was kept waiting for 45 minutes with my second child that was 5 days old in her waiting room. You think you are getting expertise but with two to three minutes for each patient interaction you could get better service from a walk-in clinic.

I called to make a appointment for a check up for my kids and I was told check ups only happen in the summer, which is ridiculous!

Dr Harrington is absolutely amazing and I'm socked by some of the bad reviews on this site! She's been with my kids since they were born and she's referred us to specialists and caught things in time since day one. I also know many friends who have her and they say the same. Dr Harrington is extremely thorough and doesn't miss anything. I really don't care that she's not cuddly because that's not what I'm looking for in a doctor for my kids. I'd rather have someone smart and experienced. I've never had a bad visit with her and she's to the point which I like! Yes she's busy! She's probably one of the top pediatricans in Toronto! Again, I would highly recommend her and feel very lucky to have her look after my two kids.
