Dr. Bennett is a fantastic doctor. He has helped my kids many times over the years. He shows a lot of compassion, which isn’t something I’ve come to expect with all doctors. He considers every detail of an issue and adapts to different circumstances that are sometimes outside of textbook scenarios. I’m impressed by his ability to do this. Some doctors seem to get nervous when they’re confronted by medical problems that aren’t textbook. His calm, unbothered demeanor is what makes me trust him. I know my kids are safe in his care.
