All the attention was very good, what I didn't like was that they didn't attend to me at my appointment time and it took a long time.

Dr. Howell was very kind and respectful to us and was caring to my 5 month old daughter.

This is my second time this year seeing Dr. Meghan Howell and her team. And I can honestly just say that I'm very, very happy to have her as a part of my child's care team. Earlier this year, I was not doing good and I was, you know, struggling mentally. And it was just something that she was able to see during the visit. And I just appreciate the resources that she was able to give me during that visit. It's something that honestly, even to this day, I am still using and my daughter is about to be a year old. So I just want to say thank you. Thank you so much to the team. I appreciate everything you guys have done for me as a first-time mommy.
