Dr. Savage was very patient kind and gentle when speaking with my daughter. He took an active interest in her as a person not just a patient. This was the first time my daughter was happy with her visit with her pediatrician! She requested that we see him again.

Dr.Savage is a very cheery, polite, and professional doctor. My son wasn't the least bit withdrawn even though it was his first time seeing Dr. Savage.

His two sons, Tim, a pediatrician, and John, a recruiter, reside in Columbus, Ohio. Additionally, a daughter, Caitlin, is in Cleveland, and a son, Carson, is at the University of South Florida. His two golden retrievers, Huey and Winston, complete his family, which, along with the humans, are his greatest joys!
