    Don't think the doctor believes me - trying to steer me in another direction. I'll attend one more appmnt and see where this goes.

    The resident Dr. Heil was very kind, patient with my child, and informative. He easily answered all my questions and had a great beside manner with my 4 year old who had a lot of energy during the appointment. And Dr. Wurth was so kind and informative as well! They both listened to me and answered all of my questions well. I would recommend them to anyone.

      Dr. Wurth is always good, but I'd like to give a shoutout to the resident (Luke H.) as I found him to be especially good at breaking down information and talking about issues in a way my 10 year could understand.

      Dr Wurth is always attentive and adjusts medications and treatment plans to match my concerns along with my son's symptoms. He has had a resident our last few visits and they have been very attentive, informed. I have not had to repeat symptoms or concerns once Dr Wurth joined the visit, and all have kept my son calm and happy during his visits.
