I honestly know nothing about her current staff. Dr. Persak was my son's first pediatrician, and the only complaint I have is that she moved! My son had heart issues, breathing issues, and pretty much every issue in-between, and Dr. Persak was always there to take care of him. She always squeezed him in when her schedule was full, and could always come up with a workable solution to our problems. I have not yet found a ped. to take her place, and have found myself trying to self-diagnose my son, something I never had to do when she was around. She is kind and considerate and I never understood until she left how rare it was to have a ped that understood babies with heart and asthma issues as well as she does. Highly recommended, esp. for sickly infants.
