My kids have been going here since they were 1 and newborn. They are now 16 and 19. Dr T and Dr C take care of my kids like their family. I tell them all the time that now that my oldest is getting to old for that office. That they are gonna need a restraining order to keep me away. They laugh. They think I’m kidding. Lol. The staff is amazing and they are so thorough. I highly recommend this office. Especially if your a new mom and nervous. They take their time and address all your concerns. Do your homework. Because pediatricians is one person you don’t want to regret choosing.
