Laura was extremely helpful and compassionate during our child’s 3-month behavioral/ADHD check-up. She listened carefully to our concerns and provided both support and a thorough understanding of the challenges we face as parents, as well as those our son is experiencing. It was reassuring to see that she reviewed the patient’s chart in detail before the appointment, which shows excellent preparation and care. This approach builds trust and creates a positive rapport with families. We plan to schedule all future appointments with NP Laura Folk.
