Magdalena Anisko, MD FAAP Cranford Pediatrics and Family Care

Overall a very disappointing experience. She does not like children. Always barking at her nurses, and she snaps at parents when they ask questions. She complained about my insurance to my face, and made it clear she cares more about payment than my boy. She also assumed I was a "young mother" and asked me what I was going to do when he turns 2. My baby is well behaved, so I was confused as to what she was trying to lecture me about. Not to mention I am around 30 years old, but of course she never bothered to ask. I feel bad for her nurses and hope they find different jobs. Please beware.

We just switched over to Dr. Maggie and we love it! We were so skeptical at first to anything she said or did, because our past experiences with pediatricians were awful (we did what the old doctors told us with no effects on our child) so naturally, we thought it would be the same with her. It isn't! She REALLY took her time, taking the whole history and finding out the problem. Then she created a plan and involved us in it (which was a new experience for us all together). Then she explained the plan and now all the problems are resolving. I was never thinking it was possible. Now all the issues are gone, and I cannot recognize my child. We now have a new child and a new experience with parenthood all together. Thank you Dr. Maggie, you saved us.

BEWARE!!!!!!! This is the worst doctor. On top of her not liking kids she is very bi- polar. She treats her employees like crap. Every time i go there are new employees because they cannot stand working for her. The couple of times i have went with my wife and kids to see her she would always come into our rooms talking bad about the patients she had seen before. She held our records for over a month on purpose. As per her secretaries her daughter is the one writing all these positive reviews. DO NOT BELIEVE THESE POSITIVE REVIEWS THEY ARE ALL LIES!!!!!!!!! This one star rating is still too much for this dr she deserves to have negative stars. PLEASE save yourself the hassle of choosing her as your child's dr. if you do you WILL REGRET IT

Dr. Maggie has been a wonderful pediatrician to our 3 children. She is so thorough, especially with our twin boys who were born 6 weeks premature. She is always right on the money in diagnosing them and recommending specialists when necessary. Dr. Maggie truly knows all there is to know about our children, so we always know she will give them great care.

I appreciate how this doctor relates my issues and what I am going through with her own experiences as a parent... It really gives you a different perspective; not only from a medical professional but also as a parent. She knows what works and what doesn't, and if it doesn't work for me she has suggestions and advice to give. I always leave with a handful of tips that are helpful. Although, she is very direct and honest which some parents who want things sugarcoated may find off balance at first... but once you get to know the doctor and her personality you will understand that's how she is able to provide parents with the best medical knowledge efficiently. She has a great bedside manner and is compassionate, but most of all she is human and that's what makes her great!
