We love our provider and team. One thing of note, the person who gave our child their vaccine was simply lovely. Would love for this person to get a shout out!

Dr. Scott-Vernaglia is not only a fantastic doctor but she really cares abt her patients. She listens to me and takes my preferences/worries into consideration. She always follows up whether it's a message or test results.

The care provider was very nice. I will say, though, I felt pressured for my daughter to get the hepatitis A vaccine. And I just feel like it's unnecessary to pressure parents to give vaccines that are not comfortable giving their children. Otherwise, I had a great experience. Thanks.
