Nicole Chaves was great and explained things that all of us (parents and child) could easily understand and gave us lots of information. She was kind to our son and listened to him. I would definitely want to see her again if we need an orthopedist in the future.

Nicole was extraordinary. She was kind and energetic and explained things so my child could understand. She spoke directly to my child so she felt Includes and heard. She made sure to address any concerns my child or I had. I cannot express enough how positive our visit to this office was from check-in to check-out.
