She was very kind and talked down to us. She talked directly at us with compassion.

The doctor is always takes time to explain everything to us and spends time even if we may have numerous questions. She's not in a hurry to get out of the room and you can tell she really cares about your kid and their health. I would definitely recommend her to other parents in need of an orthopedist.

She was a very kind, respectful woman and talked to my granddaughter, made sure she understood what was going on and answered any questions we had. I was very very impressed.
