    Dr. Glissmeyer is a phenomenal doctor. He sat with my husband and I during our newborn sons visit and was so kind, compassionate, and helpful. He gave us so much good information and was so down-to-earth about parenting and taking care of a baby in our sons situation. He didnt seem to be in a rush at all and answered every question patiently, thoroughly, and on our level. We went into that appointment with worries and questions and we came out with surety and peace. I am so grateful we had the pleasure of working with Dr. Glissmeyer!
