We had a great visit with Dr. Colton and his team. He was efficient, patient and thorough. We had a situation come up unexpectedly and he was able to see our son same day! He took the time to explain the problem our child was having and was perfectly conservative in his treatment plan. We won’t bring our children anywhere else!

My kids are not great with most physician visits… but this one was great. No kids like shots, but our wait time was minimal and he respected that my son & daughter wanted to be in separate rooms for th visit. We had mi mako tears.. and they did just fine. He gave great references and was polite and kind! Awesome pick!

Dr. Colton is kind and informative. I was on the fence about giving my baby the RSV antibody and he calmly explained to me all the benefits of it! I would recommend him to all people with children!
