Not only did Dr. Murphy do an excellent job in routine care, but also this pediatric practice was astute enough to spot the earliest sign of cancer in my son who was otherwise without any symptoms. The ultrasound ordered in an abundance of caution and their swift actions thereafter led directly to diagnosis. Because of this, we caught the disease in its very early stages and the prognosis is the best we could hope for in this situation. Very thankful for this doctor.

Both my children have been patients of Dr. Murphy & Dr. Truxal since they were babies. They are very thorough with their exams and never prescribe antibiotics unless they are necessary. It has been many years and I could not be happier.
