    Excellent care from Dr. Sivikoti at our visit. Dr. Sivikoti was considerate and showed a great deal of care for my teenage daughter with her recent medical diagnosis, and thoughtfully created a health plan for her. Dr. Sivikoti made a point of reassuring both of us in a kind and sincere manner, which meant a great deal. Compassionate medical care!
