Parent Feedback

My Daughter had a fever late in the evening when she was a few months old. I called Wee Care at 11 pm and they were able to get me in before they closed for the night. And I just think that is the best thing for a new mom who just needed some assurance about my babies wellness. The staff is super nice every visit. Dr. Jennifer Gilsoul is the doctor we visit with and she is so good with my baby. She's very informative and nice. And she is also so patient with my husband and I when we have so many questions as first time parents.
