I was impressed with the amount of time spent with my child and that she checked of doing an X-ray while we were there so that it wouldn't have to be done at a later date should my child decide to do surgery

Dr. Menzer s a wonderful doctor

My son broke his arm, and it's been really traumatic, especially at one year old. I was so impressed with all of the care that he received. I got to see his x-rays. The provider was really great. She actually went, and got another book of x-rays to show me how things heal at different ages to show me that although it looks bad, that it should heal fine, and that they'll continuously be working on his care. Explained to me the difference between bone healing in children versus adults. Really took the time to explain things to me. I really just appreciated that little bit extra. It really went a long way to making me feel a little bit better about this situation.

All staff were friendly and professional . My son was very well taken care of. Very satisfied with the services.

Amazing. Children's Hospital always is so impressive, thorough and accurate. Would recommend 10/10 to anyone!
