I absolutely loved Dr. Garg. She listened and took in all of the things we have been noticing with our son and suggested additional testing to properly diagnose his situation.

Dr Garg is a celebrity in our circle of family & friends. We are so grateful to have her as my child's doctor. She determined that my child was taking the wrong medication and we switched him to a different and more beneficial one. Since then, we have noticed a dramatic change in our son's behavior, personality, and overall existence as a child. We witnessed him being in a fog for so long, it was mind blowing to see such incredible and positive changes in him. We love ETCH and the whole Nuerology team!

I wanted the appointment for concerns with absent seizures, and left with an incorrect diagnosis of my child being "on the spectrum". This doctor had no cause to assume this of my child. She did not listen to my concerns, instead put words into my mouth making assumptions.

There was no reason for being here so a lot of the appointment was spent over explaining things that do not apply

I wouldn't recommend her because it felt like she didn't believe us when we answered questions and may my child feel uncomfortable and not listened to.

Dr. Garg insisted that her problem is psychological even though she lefts her arms she passes out and had no concerns about her light sensitivity and we stopped telling her any other symptoms cause she just wanted to know when she was going to a psychologist. She wasn't even concerned that when we parked in the garage right before coming in, that my daughter stretched and fell on the concrete in the parking lot because she got out of the car before I did. Even when we asked about her ability to fly in a plane she gave us anti anxiety pills. We were more concerned about the herniation and spryinx with the pressure of being on a plane. My daughter left there crying that no one will listen to her that something is wrong and that she doesn't want to come back. Then we went to get a copy of her eeg that we have already had a second opinion on (they say it's not normal even though she said it was), and we were sitting there she stretched and passed out and hit her head but there's nothing wrong other than psychological.
