Hello. Both the doctor and nurse we saw were excellent. They were both very helpful in explaining things, very professional, but also had that personal touch that we appreciate because it's a child's visit. So can't recommend them enough. Excellent job on both doctor and nurse. So thank you so much for helping us.

Great experience

star star star star star

This provider is under the impression that all allergies require an EpiPen and unless you're reacting bad enough to need one, you're not allergic to something. She also doesn't believe that people can have sensitivities. I know that I am not a doctor but I know for a fact individuals can be sensitive to certain foods and external sources without being full on allergic because I experience this myself and have meet with my own allergist about these issues. I also know that not all allergies require an EpiPen. I have a sister who has experienced the growth of allergies and my own husband deals with allergies. She disregarded information that I have been taught by allergists in the past. Ultimately, I feel that her knowledge in the field of allergies is highly lacking and I would never recommend her to anyone nor would I ever go back and see her.

The doctor strongly disagreed with the ENT that we saw before this. She did not seem to look at my child's chart before asking questions about why we were there. I felt like it was a waste of time and I was being judged for not knowing this before hand.
