Patient Reviews
Sep 06, 2024
Our appointment was great. He is thorough, explains well, listens. He's straightforward and to the point which I appreciate. He didn't do extra unneccessary testing and educated us on my son's growth and weight which has always been a struggle since he's so tall and skinny. I feel relieved and heard after our appointment.
