Amazing! From lactation specialist to the office staff to pediatrician we are thrilled! The whole team really cares about our baby as well as us and our understand of our baby’s health as parents. We feel like we’re in the perfect place for care driven by the combination of compassion and the highest level of medical knowledge that gives us the feeling our baby is very well taken care of. Grateful to have found this practice and highly recommend!

We see Megan at Pediatric Care and to say she is the absolute best simply wouldn’t do her justice. She is kind and thorough with her visits. She has a way of putting our kids at ease while they are there. She listens to our concerns and offers a multitude of knowledge for our questions. We all absolutely adore her and our kids think she is the best even if they have to get shots. We are so lucky we found her!

The staff had a room immediately ready for us, and were very quick with vitals. We barely had to wait for the pediatrician. Dr. VanVliet is so thorough, and I never felt rushed as I spoke with her. Her bedside manner is wonderful. Strong recommend.

My wife and I absolutely loved our experience. We brought our newborn for our first visit, and the clinic was excellent. Dr. Vanvliet is amazing—she takes the time to explain everything, making us feel both comfortable and confident. The same goes for the lactation team, who were equally supportive and professional. We highly recommend this clinic!

We have seen both Dr. Martin and Scholegel. They are kind and knowledgeable. The office staff are great. They are quick to respond to phone calls, med refills, and concerns that arise.

Scheduling, transfer of records, reminders leading up to day of appointment, parking and check in were smooth. The front desk staff and nurses are so sweet and kind with the kids and parents. We absolutely loved Dr.VanVliet and her nurse. Dr. VanVliet has a great bed side manner, is knowledgable and detail oriented. We are definitely sticking with Dr.V for my daughter and son who's on the way! They have lactation consultants here too which is a huge plus. Thank you for such good service.

Our experience here with our newborn has been great. From the prenatal appointment & now our second visit with our baby, it’s a great experience! Dr. Wolfe is affirming, reassuring & very kind as are the rest of the staff.
