    Peaches is by far the best doctor my daughter has ever had. My daughter finally gets excited to go to the doctor to see her.

    We felt the doctor took ample time to listen to any concerns and did so in a manner that didn't feel we were rushed and that she was really paying attention.

    Mrs. Peaches was great! My son and I really liked her. She listened and explained everything thoroughly! Gave us everything we need and advice to my son to help cure his acne. Very helpful and my son felt comfortable with her.

    Dr. Peaches is a gem. She showed genuine concern for my child, and gave practical solutions and a care plan that we will work together on. I am very happy to have her as my kids' pediatrician. She is very knowledgeable, caring, fun, and tries to have a relationship with both the parents, and her patients.
