We have a child with several medical issues. Dr Desoutter is great at putting all the pieces together and explaining. She listens. Nurses are also very good.

Dr. Desoutter is an excellent pediatrician. We have always be confident in her diagnosis, and in fact on one occasion about 13 years ago when our son was two she diagnosed his pnuemonia, when the Emergency room at Scottish Rite did not! We are grateful for Pediatric Associates of North Atlanta
