    Absolutely love my Children’s Doctor! He always goes above and beyond with care , listening and discussing my kiddos situations and concerns , never do we ever leave his office felt misunderstood or with questions left unanswered. Walking into his office alway s feels like home , his staff is always respectful and friendly , always a clean environment (love the new office btw). Just overall the comfort, the care, the medical treatment, everything is amazing and I could not ask for a better neurologist for my 2 children. Keep up the great care and support ! We appreciate you all so much !

Dr. Philipps is an amazing doctor and I wish I could stay with him but sadly have to switch out of pediatric.
