Patient Reviews
Oct 26, 2023
I’ve had two visits with Dr. Childs in Leland. The support staff was professional and friendly; my appointment was kept on time. Dr. Childs was professional and respected my intelligence and medical knowledge. Yes, he was more amiable during the second appointment, reflecting greater familiarity with me and my case. I respect his medical judgement and will certainly follow up with him.
