Patient Reviews
Oct 04, 2019
Finding Dr. Hitch is by far the best thing that had happen for us. My grandbaby has made a complete turn around in the last 6 month since she started seeing her. The 1st time we saw Dr. Hitch I knew she knew her stuff. My grand daughter was having trouble gaining weight among a list of other complications, but since we started seeing Dr Hitch she has been thriving. Dr. Hitch is very friendly and has an awesome bedside manner. She takes whatever time is needed to discuss the care of her patients. Our family simply loves Dr. Hitch and we will truly miss her and will be saddened when she leaves Louisiana, but we do wish the very best for her as she takes the next step.
