    Dr. Kessel was very nice and he was very pleasant. He also always made sure he checked with my son before he did anything, making sure that he felt comfortable.

    This was our first visit with Dr Kessel and he was wonderful! We did have a significant wait and I felt bad bugging the staff because we did have somewhere to go. Dr Kessel listened patiently and asked lots of questions; so appreciative of the attention he gave us at what was the end of a very long day.

    Dr. Kessell is a gold standard example of how every pediatrician should be. He has the best bedside manner, genuinely loves kids, and clearly considers evidence-based, scientific, and data-driven clinical decisionmaking.

    He had a ton of energy and was very engaging with the baby. It didn't feel rushed and it felt like he really took his time. He was the best provider that we've seen.
