Liked how he explained the need for being active as important to health in a way my daughter could understand and not just a blanket statement about losing weight. She was excited to get her active time in the next day

Excellent experience. MD listens to all concerns and takes time to answer questions. He also talks with my child about herself, and doesn't just dwell no the problem. Experience was excellent.
