    Dr. Dangerfield was amazing with our son! He has major anxiety going in to the appointment and Dr. Dangerfield talked to him and made him feel so relaxed. It was the best appointment we have ever had with our son and this area of care! My son actually said I can't wait to go back to see Dr. Dangerfield he was so cool!

    I could tell from the moment he walked in the room, he was really good with kids. That's very important to me as a mother of three.

    Dr. Dangerfield is a treasure in the world. His bedside manner is fantastic. He's so good to our girl. Even though we are going to him knowing she is getting shots, she is thrilled to go. She squeals all week leading up to the appointment. He takes interest in the whole family. Every appointment, we leave happy with sore cheeks from all the laughter. We can not say enough good about him.
