I feel like her response and reaction to me not vaccinating my children was unnecessary and unprofessional.

Emily was very kind with my son who was very upset and nervous. Her calming demeanor helped ease my son’s fears and helped the exam finish quickly and thoroughly. I’ve had very negative experiences with pediatric providers that were very condescending or uninterested in care but Emily was not like that at all. Overall a very positive experience

Emily is down-to-earth and listens to parental concerns and to the child. My preteen likes to be involved in her own healthcare and Emily gave her the choice of trying therapy first versus medicating first during a recent mental health visit. This made me respect her that much more as we don’t like to push medication first in our household.
