Recommendations

kimEverett, WA03.30.11
Dr. Novotny and his staff have been very easy to approach about any concerns or questions I have about my daughter. He is kind, and knowledgeable, and always takes the time to sit and explain any information to you. I never feel like a question is irrelevant.
