Did not care for the resident doctor!

We switched from the last provider because there was not a connection between DR and [...]. This staff bedside manner is beyond superior. The resident who cared for ARI was very patient and interacted with her on a human level and made [...] smile. His Supervising DR, listened and was very personable. One thing as parents we noticed that there was communication between the DRs, meaning that when the resident got his supervising DR she was updated on what to expect when she walks into the room. That gave us reassurance that our daughter is in good hands.
