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.

We continue to be impressed with the level of care and compassion we receive from the entire practice but Dr Boekhaus specifically. We have moved from the area, but we will continue to use this practice because of the superior level of care and service.

Front desk was incredibly helpful and courteous. The nurse we saw was also great and we love Dr. B. She spent a lot of time with us and gave our son very personalized care.

February 24, 2025

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.

Melissa Boekhaus has been my son's provider since he was two months, I believe, and he's 18 months now. And she is amazing. She makes me feel heard. I appreciate her so very much. I feel safe with her caring for my son. She's absolutely amazing. I cannot say it enough. I'm so comfortable in this office and I absolutely wouldn't go anywhere else besides Miss Melissa Boekhaus. So I just want to thank her so, so, so very much for everything that she does. She's a wonderful doctor. Wonderful. Thank you.

January 17, 2025

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.

Dr. Boekhaus and this practice are absolutely amazing and I've never trusted any medical professionals more with both of my kids' care. So, thank you.

Dr. Boekhaus and this practice are absolutely amazing and I've never trusted any medical professionals more with both of my kids' care. So, thank you.

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.

Melissa Boekhaus has been my son's provider since he was two months, I believe, and he's 18 months now. And she is amazing. She makes me feel heard. I appreciate her so very much. I feel safe with her caring for my son. She's absolutely amazing. I cannot say it enough. I'm so comfortable in this office and I absolutely wouldn't go anywhere else besides Miss Melissa Boekhaus. So I just want to thank her so, so, so very much for everything that she does. She's a wonderful doctor. Wonderful. Thank you.

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.

It was so nice for the doctor to conduct a telehealth appointment. I was able to get my daughter to school on time and it saved me 1.5 hours. Thank you!

We continue to be impressed with the level of care and compassion we receive from the entire practice but Dr Boekhaus specifically. We have moved from the area, but we will continue to use this practice because of the superior level of care and service.

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.
