We brought our newborn daughter in for her one-week checkup and had such a great experience! The doctor was incredibly kind, took time to answer our questions, and made us feel so comfortable as new parents. Everything from check-in to the visit itself was super easy and smooth. We’re really happy we chose Care Pediatrics!
