She always explains everything in a way that my daughter can understand it. She is well-informed about her condition, medication and is comfortable discussing things with the provider.

Spoke very softly while wearing a mask which occasionally made hearing her difficult.

Very good provider visit. Listening, supportive and wanted to hear the full story from us, not by her records.

Dr. Choudhari is a very thoughtful and compassionate provider. She does an excellent job of keeping my 9 yr. old daughter informed and communicates in a way that is age appropriate but not so much info it causes my daughter concern.
