  • Dr Drop was very thorough in her examination, consideration for treatment, and explanations. She had just recently attended a dermatology conference and shared what she learned as relevant to the reason for the visit.

  • This was our last visit with Dr Drop (most likely) bc my daughter is turning 18 soon. She has been an amazing pediatrician to my daughter and our family. Always willing to talk through issues, being open to discussion and interested in hearing our concerns. We couldn't have asked for a more caring physician and we are truly grateful for her professionalism, compassion and care!!!

About the Patient Experience Rating System

The Patient Experience Rating is an average of all responses to the care provider related questions shown above from our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being the best score. We are committed to true transparency. However, to ensure the comments are fair and correctly attributed, we review each one before posting to the website. We exclude entire comments that disclose patient’s protected health information, are off-topic, or include other confidential or inappropriate content. Comments will appear on provider bios only if providers have a minimum number of comments. Comments are shared internally for education purposes to ensure that we are doing our very best for the patients and families for whom we are privileged to care. The comments are submitted by patients and families and reflect their views and opinions. The comments are not endorsed by and do not reflect the views of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
