Jan 26, 2019
I went to this office confused and scared I didn’t know what to expect. Doctor B treated my baby with care and affection as if she was her own. Dr. B went above and beyond to get to the root of the problem and provided is with the best possible solution and treatment as well as answered all our questions and concerns. She’s very detailed and I love that about a good doctor. Thank you very much dr B.
