Our experience with Dr. Garvin was not as positive as our experience with Vanessa. He almost immediately likened our challenges with breast-feeding to "trying to pull water from a dry well," which Is an incredibly tone deaf and offensive thing to say to someone who is struggling with milk production. The feedback he gave was also inconsistent with that of Vanessas, especially around some of the additional remedies that we could try, such as the use of fenugreek In its natural form via a pill form. Given the experience, we will not elect to see Dr. Garvin again, nor will we recommend him.

I am so glad we found Dr. Garvin. He is so patient, kind, and approachable. He always leads off with my concerns and never makes me feel silly about things I "should" know with my third baby-- I felt that a lot with past pediatricians. His calm demeanor helps me feel more calm about my kids' health, and we never feel rushed. We also appreciate each MA we've worked with--they have all been well-trained and compassionate. Add to that easy scheduling and access, along with no waits, and we've had a great experience each time with Dr. Garvin and his team.
