Patient Reviews
Jun 24, 2023
This doctor was sent from heaven. After multiple bad experiences with some renowned pediatric neurology doctors, we finally found a humane, ethic, interested and very knowledgeable professional Doctor, who not only cares about the money but most importantly, she cares about her patients. Although we still do not know what my daughter has, she made us feel welcomed, loved, cared for and understood. She spent the necessary time to get to know my daughter and all the symptoms affecting her. She ordered tests and gave us all the time we needed in order to explain the whole situation and not only the Hematology side of them. Very much recommended.
