I cannot say enough great things about Dr. Linek. She is wonderful. She helped tremendously with my kiddo. Not only did she help my kiddo, but she really strived to help (and did help) the entire family.
She always spent the time needed to answer my questions, go through the pros and cons of any treatment, and really listened to my concerns and then addressed them. Trust her instincts! She is a fantastic.
