Patient Reviews
Apr 12, 2018
Dr Gardner was great. We never felt rushed or like we were being a burden with our concerns and questions. Such a rare quality in a doctor! Especially when we know our daughter’s issue wasn’t the most imperative in his office, he still took time to talk with us and explain the issue fully. We now know what to be concerned about and at what time frame vs stressing over every new little symptom.
