Dayton Children's is special because...

Dr. King and her staff have always been amazing with my child, explaining in detail everything that's going on, everything she's prescribing, everything she's doing, and we just are absolutely thrilled that she's his doctor.

Dr. King had a great personality, gave honest feedback, was very knowledgeable in the field and able to provide ideas and suggestions that we could use based off of our lives. She listened attentively to be able to do those things. Very pleased. Very, very pleased. My child even had nothing but great things to say about her as much as she was a little, she didn't really want to attend, but she really was glad that she went and really enjoyed the visit with this doctor and looks forward to following up with her soon.
