Dr. Rivera

THis is Max and his AMAZING Dr.
Dr. Rivera is the third Pediatrician we have gone to since Max was born. The first took 8 days to return a phone call ( bye bye )
The Second made is feel bad that we had a lot of questions ( see ya )
and the third is our good luck charm!
He came in - washed his hands and greeted us with smiles and introduced himself and shook our hands. ( the other two neglected to do that - and it seemed they didn't really care about the parents of Max )
Dr. Rivera is gentle, Kind, thoughtful, highly prepared, patient, easy to talk with and ask questions, Max loves him, and that counts for a LOT, and he calls back right away! We have been blown away by his bed side manner, his attention to Max and to us, and his overall care of our child.
