Patient Reviews
Mar 29, 2025
Excellent experience. He took the time to ask questions about my child and explain the 'why' behind his recommendations, as well as why my child was encountering her problem. He listened well and was understanding of what parents of toddlers can experience. He spent a lot of time engaging my child to make her feel relaxed. He was respectful of my role as her father and asked for permission to examine her. When he did, he invited me to be near him and explained to both me and my child what he was (and was not) doing. I traveled with my child to see him and I am glad I did. I have been to several doctors about my child's issue, and he was by far the best and had the most concrete recommendations to follow.
