    The team is great and friendly. The doctor is super kind and explains stuff to where we understand what he is talking about and even uses drawing to explain things so we can get a visual of what he is talking about.

    I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who helped us during our visit. My son has autism, and although I'm not sure if everyone knew, we were treated with so much kindness. When he got upset, someone gave him a bear to help calm him, and another even offered him a sucker. That small act of care meant the world to us. Everyone was so patient and wonderful! I truly appreciate it!
