Patient Reviews
Sep 30, 2021
Dr. Balk is a great pediatrician, she has been my son's Dr for 12 years and know and remembers everything like a small town doctor. She is caring and very knowledgeable. Now the bad part..... her office is full of uneducated and unprofessional staff. If she had her own practice with her own staff she would be a dream come true. It is hard to not judge a doctor by their front office staff, but they don't work for her so it might make her look bad. She is amazing, we love her.
