The Doctor was patient, and gentile with my girl who was nervous, never rushing and talking in such a soothing voice the entire visit. I took both girls at the same time and the one was allowed to wonder around the exam room while the other was being seen. {both were in for well checks} The Doctor answered all my questions and didn't make me feel like I was being a bother. I absolutely love this place even if I do have to travel a little father SO worth it!!!
