5 out of 5 stars

Dr. Smego was very thorough in her questions. She was not rushed and took time to hear everything that might be relevant to [NAME REMOVED]'s case. She clearly explained why he didn't need to be seen for another year. I felt like she took plenty of time, understood all concerns, and made a clear plan of tracking his growth through childhood.
