Dr. Kumar has really won over my son with her bedside manner. It's no longer a battle or anxiety inducing situation for my son to come to have med check visits.

We recently visited Dr. Kumar when my child was sick with a fever and cough, and I couldn't be more grateful for the care we received. From the moment we walked in, Dr. Kumar was warm, attentive, and reassuring-not just to me as a parent, but also to my little one who was feeling miserable.Dr. Kumar took the time to listen carefully to all my concerns, asked thoughtful questions, and explained everything clearly in a way that put me at ease. What stood out most was the gentle and kind way they interacted with my child-making the experience far less scary and even a little comforting.I highly recommend Dr. Kumar to any parent looking for excellent, compassionate pediatric care!
