Dr. Evans is truly exceptional for her knowledge of her profession and the patience in taking time to explain everything that needs to be done for her patients. We left the office feeling that our daughters are in good hands. Her very next assistant, the nurse that did all the preliminary job of weighing, measuring, and giving the girls their shots was also very professional and friendly. I feel terrible to have allowed the name of the wonderful nurse to escape me.

Dr. Evans: always have been pleased with her ever since I had my baby which he now is 3. I stayed with her and even followed her to her new clinic. Never have I been so pleased with a doctor like I have been with her: very attentive on everything and remembers anything that has happened to your child before and will ask how they've been. Very nice. Wouldn't change her for no one else!

Every time I bring my child, I know that I'm going to get the best care and help. This is why I'll drive 40 minutes for an appointment rather than go to another provider closer to home. Can't recommend you and your staff enough! Everyone is great from the front desk to the nurses and doctors.
