2 weeks agoOne of the best doctor! I was so pleased with my baby care. I came to the Er department Thursday night and was sent back home with my son just to come back the next day, Friday. My son was diagnosed wrong the first visit to the ER. The second ER visit we had the pleasure to meet Dr. Matta. I didn't even have to explain what happened the first visit to the ER. This doctor was so extremely knowledgeable in what he does and goes above and beyond anything you can imagine. I knew my baby boy was in good hands! Nursing has changed so much and it's such a blessings to see that we still have people that loves taking care and very compassionate about others. And not just treated as a job! Thank you so much Dr. Matta!! My baby boy is doing so much better and it's all because of you! God bless you โค๏ธ

6 months agoTonight was the second time we've had the pleasure of dealing with Dr. Matta. He came right in, sat down, and listened to the list of concerns we had regarding our daughter. He made it clear that he was there for whatever our wishes may be, and what we were comfortable with. Once he left the room my husband turned to me and said that he may of been the best doctor we have ever talked to and he had the best demeanor as well. That is saying a lot from someone whose children spent 138 days in the NICU with multiple doctors we grew to love. He is an amazing doctor and you can tell he truly loves what he does. I know that he treated our daughter like his own - and that means everything to us. If he was a pediatrician I would make the 1.5 hour drive to take my children to see him!

He answered all of our questions and went above and beyond to make sure my child was taken care of properly. He was kind, extremely knowledgeable and thorough. Thankfully it wasnโt anything serious. I felt confident and grateful for the care we received from Dr. Elias Matta. We are so lucky you were our doctor. -Rosie

2 years agoDr. Matta treated my son today at All Childrenโs Hospital, when other ERs kept pushing him away saying all was fine. He was wonderful and such a blessing! He truly listened to my concerns and was able to finally diagnosed my son. I will forever be grateful to him. His love for children is apparent. I could tell that he definitely cared for his patients. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Dr. Matta.
