We love Dr Boekhaus. She is always smiling from the moment she walks in the door till she leaves. She talks on level to the kids and makes them feel like they are the center of the world. All 4 of my kids (ages 7-16) feel comfortable with her and look forward to seeing her every year.

Dr. Boekhaus has been seeing my children for well over a decade. That's a really long time to maintain a relationship of respect, professionalism, kindness, trust and competent medical care. The proof is the feedback my children give me after every appointment about how comfortable and safe they feel with her. She is a simply wonderful doctor working inside of a well run practice.

Dr. Boekhaus is fantastic, we come here just for her. But the staff or assistants who usually measure our child and administer vaccines are the worst, so rufe, indifferent and definitely not suited to work with children. Our child always cries around them coz they're so tense, no matter what assistant we get. But calms down as soon as Dr. Boekhaus walks in. The assistants are 0 friendly, or considered towards the kids or parents. If Dr. Boekhaus left, we'd leave this practice.
