We had a wonderful experience with this doctor at our children’s pediatric office. He was extremely friendly and immediately made both me and my children feel comfortable. He was great with the kids patient, kind, and engaging in a way that really helped ease any nerves. He took his time, answered all of my questions, and made sure we understood everything clearly before we left. We never felt rushed. I’m very thankful for the care he provided and would highly recommend him to other families.

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.
