Dr.Phillips truly delights in my child's progress and ensures that I understand the medical concepts that we discuss. He is also very kind and attuned to her. She was getting antsy as he was explaining things to me, so Dr. Phillips picked her up and held her, which calmed her down so we could finish our conversation. I was so touched by that and grateful.
