Wonderful experience! Dr. Haas was thoughtful, considerate, and excellent listener and patient with my son. He immediately connected with my son by finding a common interest to ease his nerves. After that my son was able to express his gastro issues. Dr. Haas came up with a preliminary diagnosis and plan that we felt very comfortable with and set us up to return in 2 weeks. He is kind, friendly, knowledgeable and a calming presence. As a mom, I appreciate his manner and positive energy. I highly recommend him to every parent concerned with GI issues for their child. I’m grateful to have found him.
