“I would like to thank Dr. Lucille Kanjer Larson. She is such a wonderful, warm hearted doctor who has done a lot for our family. My children love her, my grandchildren love her. We need more doctors like her in this world. She takes the time to explain things and she listens with an open ear and heart. When my granddaughters' other grandmother passed away, we asked for her help letting her know. Her compassion is so admirable. We love you Dr. Lucy, there is no one like you on this earth. Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do for our family. You are the best!” Kris Z.
“Dr. Richard Lirio. We came to him after my son's gastroenterologist left his practice without much warning. We were floundering wondering how our son would be cared for. My son's pediatrician set us up for an appointment, and under Dr. Lirio's care my son is thriving for the first time.” Megan T.
