February 16, 2024UH HOSPITALS AND CLINICSHe is the best with kids. He asked Kambree all the questions and waited for her to answer. He wanted to hear from her before me, as the adult. He asked her if she had any questions, and wanted to make sure she was comfortable with what was going on. I loved it!
December 10, 2023UH HOSPITALS AND CLINICSAfter seeing multiple doctors, Dr.Bjella was the one who really took the time to listen to all of my concerns. He assures me I¿m doing a good job of taking care of my son with his growth chart. I feel included every step of the way. Everyone always takes their time explaining what every procedure is. So happy to have found him and his team!
