I love Dr. Carroll. He's kind and has a great personality. Its very hard for me to like health professionals because most don't really care about the patient. Dr. Carroll cares about his patients by addressing concerns and sharing his personal experience as a parent and a professional. I moved to Sumter SC and I kept him as my child's PCP. He's awesome and I highly recommend him for your child(ren) PCP.
