Parent Feedback

I have been taking my son to see Dr. Hoki since he was about 6 months old and we absolutely LOVE him!! He is an amazing doctor, and a very caring man. He cares about the kids he takes care of and i wouldn’t take my son to anyone else. He has guided us through some pretty tough times as my son has grown up and i can confidently say he truly cares about what he does and it’s not just a “job” for him. And WeeCare Pediatrics is just as amazing. We love all their doctors!! Their facility is clean, well ran, and their time management is great. And the women that work the front desk are so sweet and helpful. I would definitely recommend taking your babies here!!
