Has anyone else noticed that ever since he has switched buildings and opened the Knoxville office that he doesnt seem to care about the campbell co office anymore,He has had alot of staff turn over, and his attitude towards families has changed.
And most of his staff is a joke, I took both of my kids there recently, there was no patients in the building but yet the nurse said they could not work my kids in, and they would call me when they could see them. The docs attitude towards families has changed he seems like he does not care anymore.. am I the only one that is having a problem there?

<quoted text>I don't take my child there, but I have several friends that do. I have 2 friends that have recently changed their kids to other pediatricians. I would recommend you changing your kids to someone else. I have 1 friend that took her son in and Dr. Hasnain said that he didn't have an ear infection, so she called his ENT doctor and they got him in and the ENT doctor said that he DID have an ear infection. I have been told too many stories like this from parents that take their kids to him. HE IS A QUACK! I know he is bad to tell the parents that "Jimmy will be better in 2 days". Parents need to take their kids to someone that will give their kids the treatment they need to get better, but Hasnain is bad to say "It will be better in 2 days". Alot of times it doesn't get better, because the child has some sort of sinus/ear infection and if you let it go it just gets worse. My friend called Hasnain's office one day and they had told her that they didn't have any appointment's and she called them back and said if they had anything the next day (for her little girl), and the receptionist told her to just bring her child on in. So, when she got there she said that they were nobody in the waiting room! Remember, earlier she had told her that they were booked, and they didn't have any appointments. So, don't you think if they were that booked that the waiting room would have been packed? Yes! It would have been! I have noticed too that since Kelly no longer works there it has gotten worse. She was really nice, and she tried to get the children in if they were sick. Until, parents quit taking their kids there this will continue.

I used to go to Dr Hood when my kids were younger, I took my son in 19 times to the office in 1 month because of wheezing & everytime she would tell me he was not wheezing just to bring him back if he wasnt better... I paid $15 every visit just to have her tell me he was fine, I knew he was wheezing & I begged her to help him, she did nothing... Finally after I left her office I took him striaght to childrens er they admitted him for a week with pneumonia and RSV with a o2 sat of 80%! she is not who u want to take ur children to!

Just wanted to say that Dr. Hasnain has been great with our son. He was there to see him in the hospital the first morning after his birth. He provided reassurance to my spouse and I who are first time parents with many questions and fears. He has also worked us into his clinic on short notice. The waiting room is never full, which is exactly what you want in a pediatricians office! No room full of sick children coughing on each other! No waiting! His office is very efficient! I realize that every now and then people have bad experiences at the doctor, but the truth is that he is a good doctor who cares for his patients. People often only post to these forums when they had a bad experience, which is fine. BUT, what people reading should realize is that for every bad experience, there are probably 99 great experiences that people have not reason to post on the internet!(except when to defend their caring physician)
