Patient Reviews
Feb 06, 2018
I have been taking my daughter to this practice for a while. This is the first appointment we had with Dr Lessin, she really dislikes the doctor office and cry’s everytime. He was patient with her, did a quick exam and made her giggle the entire time. He was a great listener for a worrier that I am. I would be happy with seeing him again for her needs if her normal Peditrican is unavailable. Dr Lessin is fantastic, kind and helpful. He didn’t rush the appointment. The best kind of Doctor.
