I moved 30 minutes farther from this practice, but I keep bringing my daughter here because we love the staff so much. The nurses are incredible, as is every NP, PA, and MD we've seen here.

Dr. Impin and her nurse, Sarah, are great and very thorough and work well with kids. The front office staff is always very kind and helpful when checking in and checking out. They also attended to me the very next day in obtaining a doctor's note for my child's school. I highly recommend this practice. Thank you so much for all you do.

I understand that having my second child present for my son's appointment was distracting and under normal circumstances, I try not to have both children present. However, the doctor made me feel like more of a burden and incompetent for the questions I was asking regarding my son's health. I have been bringing my children to this practice since my son was born in 2017, but after this visit I may be seeking an alternate provider. The last couple of visits for my son have left me feeling like my concerns were not taken seriously and were instead being brushed off.

Yes, I definitely like Miss Kathleen. She's a very nice person. She understands me when talking to her. She takes the time to listen and she takes care of the kids very well. I do have two kids. She's a very nice doctor. Thank you. That's all I want to say about Miss Kathleen. I can provide her to somebody, in case somebody needs a reference doctor. Thank you very much.
