Parent Feedback

My family loves Dr. Ragsdale, he has been such a great doctor who not only cares about our kids, but he also take the time to care about us as the parents. He uses his time to bond and build trust. Every visit I feel like he goes above and beyond to ensure that not only the kids are taken care of, but the whole family is taken care of. We have seen a few of the other doctors on emergency visits who have been great as well. Like all things, we have had a couple bumps in the road that we were displeased with, but we feel like we are listened to and that they are wanting to resolve our concerns. Overall we love taking our kids to see Dr Ragsdale and we speak very highly of him to others.
