Patient Reviews
Mar 02, 2023
Doctor Balke has seen my son since he was 5 years old for migraines and other needs. She has been wonderful with him and speaks directly with him on how he is feeling and doing as he has gotten older and age has permitted ( he is 15 now). She has been an advocate for him with his needs and treatments and has always responded to any question(s) or concerns I have had.
