Dr. Alanna Ramoutar, MD

Our family trusted Dr. Ramoutar, but what happened under her supervision at Advocare Summit Pediatrics was unacceptable. During our daughter Celine’s 4-month visit, my wife was called at 8:05 AM and told the appointment would be canceled if she didn’t arrive immediately—even though it was the first of the day and the waiting room was empty. Rushing with our infant, she tripped outside; I caught Celine before she hit the street. Despite this, we stayed because we trusted Dr. Ramoutar. On Nov 7, both of our sons’ visits and Celine’s upcoming flu shot were abruptly canceled less than one business day before, disrupting care. My wife, who had told Dr. Ramoutar she struggles with postpartum depression, was devastated. I faxed and sent a Doximity message to Dr. Ramoutar—no response. A complaint has been filed with the NJ Department of Consumer Affairs and Overlook Hospital’s CMO.
