Dr. Pipkin was very direct and considerate. Also all the personnel during the morning of her surgery. They made sure she was ok and comfortable. And I loved they keep you informed before, during and after the surgery. God is good!

The doctor not only expressed concern for my son, the nurses expressed concern for my daughter. She lost her tooth in the office. The nurse gave her a bag for her tooth. She engaged with my kids. The doctor also explained the procedure, explained what is supposed to happen after the procedure. He answered all of my questions. And I just felt I could trust him and that he knew what he was doing.
