Dr. Aliza B Solomon

Warning to all EBF or responsive parents: this doctor will not be affirming of your choices. Aside from finding her to be dismissive, uninterested, and condescending regarding my 5mo’s GI symptoms (slimy, foul-smelling, infrequent stools; painful gas and bowel movements; fussiness and irritability), she also lacked basic knowledge of infant sleep or lactation. She asked if we sleep trained, and I responded plainly that we did not and we don’t plan to. I offered the info that my child had been waking hourly for many weeks as further possible evidence of his digestive issues. She claimed that he simply couldn’t self-soothe (sleep training language) and also insinuated that I nurse him too often. How can a baby who feeds on-demand nurse too often? After very brief investigation in the aforementioned dismissive manner, she claimed she was not convinced he had any GI problems at all. She said she had no further advice for me, and I left having wasted a whole afternoon.

Dr Solomon has cared for my daughter for several years. She has been sensitive to our issues and addressed our concerns about growth, nutrition and the g-tube. We initially came to her because she was supportive of tube feeding with blenderized normal food, not just formula.

Very knowledgeable, kind, caring, thorough and efficient Took excellent care of my daughter

Good physician, very knowlegable and responded to our requests. I have been to 2 appts, both were pleasant and satisfactory.

Terrible! Do not take your child to this person. Condescending, poor bedside manner, useless (or worse, doesn’t have) explanations for conditions, does not like to be questioned. Completely surprised that NY Presbyterian (Columbia) would continue to employ this doctor when so many people complain about her. Save yourself the trouble, heartache and money and LOOK ELSEWHERE!

I was 15 min late for an appt with Dr. Solomon for my 18mos old son and she refused to see us. I understand we were late, but I think that some understanding should have been shown when an 18mos baby is there for a GI issue. She passed us in the hallway, without acknowledgement, clearly there and available to see patients. No one else in the waiting room. Clearly shows the type of person she is and whether we want her treating our son.

Practice better suited as a credit card company. More focused on the red tape and citing hidden rules that are never communicated to you. Seeing a specialist for your young one is generally stressful enough, adding the burden of administrative red tape increases stress. We attempted seeing her and were twice denied and cited RULES that were never previously communicated. Additionally, I agree with the other reviews in her overly regimented and dismmisve approach. In NYC you have better choices!

Dr. Solomon quickly and accurately diagnosed the source of my son's failure to thrive diagnosis and found a non-invasive, simple and effective treatment. My son has leaped up 12 percentiles in height. I have always found Dr. Solomon to be easily accessible through Weill Cornell Connect. Very grateful to have her as my son's doctor!!

Extremely horrible experience consulting with Dr. Solomon regarding our daughters GI issues. Completely disregards your concerns, poor attitude, lack of professionalism, and very primative! I would strongly suggest all parents to stay away from her, by any means necessary. She shows no compassion in her craft and is Very Very Ignorant !

Dr. Solomon misdiagnosed my daughter stomach condition with canditas. When I tried to reach her when my daughter had a second episode, she pawned me off to her interns and very difficult to reach.. When I realized she did not know what she was doing, I went to another doctor, who immediately diagnosed her with celiac disease. Dr. Solomon should have easily seen this. She was the worst
