Dr. Hart not only asked me, as a parent about concerns, but also asked my child. While Dr. Hart is our care provider he provides information to us as a physician and a parent. We always feel we are getting honest and practical medical advise.
Dr Hart is a great listener. he always takes time with us. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a pediatrician. He is very kind, caring, and compassionate with his clients.
Dr. Hart is wonderful! He spends all the time that you need and answers any questions that you have. He always interacts with the kids, and they love that!

Dr. Hart was amazing! He was very good with both my boys and was very thorough with everything!
Dr. Hart is very personable and takes time to answer my questions. He's great with my kids!
the wait time at the Jefferson Hills office, with an appointment, is unacceptable. for a second year in a row, it took over an hour past our scheduled appointment time to be seen. we were put in a room, where we sat, unacknowledged, for 45 minutes past appointment time. if this continues, we will absolutely consider switching providers. it's terrible sad when walk-ins pass you by leaps and bounds.
Dr. Hart was my pediatrician for 21 years. I had my last appointment with him on March 1st due to my age. I appreciate and thank him for my care.
Dr. Hart is absolutely the best doctor I've ever seen.
Dr. Hart is wonderful. My kids age range from 13-newborn. He takes care of them all with such patience and a calmness that makes my kids so comfortable. My only complaint lately would be with the waiting room being busy with sick patients. I was there for a newborn weight check and had to have my husband wait in the car with our newborn because there were so many sick kids without masks on. I'm not sure how much of a difference it makes at the Brentwood office having the well area and sick area, but I wish there was some way to keep things separate. It was very concerning being there with a 5 day old.
We LOVE dr hart, but calling the practice is a nightmare, hold times are insane every time you call, especially if you call to ask a medical question. Insanely high hold times, because of this I dread calling this office.
Dr Hart was easygoing, attentive, and seemed to genuinely care about our child and the questions/concerns we had. We recently relocated back to the Pittsburgh area, so finding new providers is alwaya daunting. We were thrilled with Dr Hart and are so pleased that he was recommended to us.

doctor Hart was amazing.
the provider cur me off manu times not allowing me to finish my sentence and interrupted me several times with his opinions. Valid or not the provider should allow the parent to finish their sentences. In addition whole the provider opened the door to look for a medical assistant he interrupted my childs visit to address this other patients issues and speak with the parent. Very unprofessional. He also may consider shutting the door next time while speaking to that parent. I heard private information that was not mine to hear.
We really like Dr Hart. I came in for my newborn first weight check and he was very cheerful and answered all of my questions. I bring my other two children to him also.
