Dr. Porter takes her time to listen to your concerns and doesn't blow you off. She is genuine in her care for her patients. Her caring personality makes her great at the job that she does. She will follow up on your little one and make sure all your concerns or issues have been addressed. I highly recommend her to care for your young ones!
