      While we had to travel twice as far to see Dr V at this location, she is worth it. We've never found another provider like her and will continue to travel to maintain this level of care for our sons. She is exactly what every parent needs as a pediatrician in my opinion.

      I love Dr. Vazarkar. She is so thorough and reassuring. I trust her completely. Her MA, [ ], is equally amazing.

      We had been long time patients of Dr. Parrish and we're very comfortable with her. Dr. V stepped right in so we could feel equally comfortable with her even though she is new to us.
