It was a fantastic experience. Dr. Plowden was great at explaining things and asking our input. Nursing staff did great with my little one despite her being very upset and crying during the EKG. They were patient and tried to calm her. The lady who did the Echo was definitely in the right line of work. She put on nursery rhymes and had toys to distract my little one. Loved that all the testing we needed was available in the same office and on the same day. All around great experience! Thank you!!
