Dr Gellnor is always so kind, compassionate, loving and personable. Her bedside manner is the best I've seen in any provider. She is thorough and listens to the caregivers, treating them with respect, weighing in their opinions to provide better, more personal care for the children. You can tell she truly loves the children and their family! Her desire to instill education in children is apparent by her book giving program which provides each child with age appropriate book during wellchild exams. I have worked with dozens of pediatricians and she's the best of the best! Her MA's are also wonderful.
