Patient Reviews
May 14, 2021
Dr. Tappan was my pediatrician growing up, and i stayed with him until i was way too old to still be seeing a pediatrician! But that’s just how great he is. I had such an amazing experience with him as my own doctor that I now am blessed to be able to bring my son to him. We’ve been bringing our son to Tappan since he was born and he will soon be 3! No complaints ever. Dr. Tappan has always answered all of our questions in detail and eased the minds of two very new and very nervous parents! There’s no one else i would trust with my son’s health.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
