Very nice clinic
March 14, 2024
I feel like Dr. Reynolds really listened to me and my concerns, which is honestly the only thing I require of a provider at this point. I know that they know more than I do about the medicine, but I know my son, and I could tell she truly believes that. Our interaction was fairly brief, but I'm a big fan of her.
February 27, 2024
Dr. Reynolds was incredible. She listened to all of my concerns and walked me through all of the reasoning for the treatment plan moving forward. She was very good with my son who is understandably a bit hesitant around health care providers, even at 16 months. I'm very happy she's a part of our care team and feel very comfortable with the explanations and plans she gave me.
February 27, 2024
We can tell Dr. Reynolds is a really special and really great doctor. We are so pleased she is on our team.

Didn't have any wait time from the time I got registered in for my appt to the time the nurse called me back and the Dr was in very shortly after the nurse was done with us. So no waiting time! Very prompt! Everyone was so nice,greeted us with a smile and willinglingness to want to help.

We loved the time she took to explain things and see what questions we had. I didn't feel rushed or brushed aside which is good because this is a serious surgery.
