Dr. Messinger has been the pediatrician for my daughter and son since they were toddlers. She is amazing. Every time we see her it is such a pleasant experience. She cares about her patients and she is so kind. Today we had no wait time to see her.

Dr. Messinger took the time to get to know my toddler daughter who was visiting her for the first time. She did a wonderful job of building rapport with her by asking questions and sharing a little about herself. The nurses on her team are also very warm and friendly— they work well with young children.

Dr Messinger spends time talking to us and getting to know my son. She doesn't push medicine and tries to find the reasons for a pain or issues, then works with us to find solutions to any problem

We always have a great experience at Dr. Messinger's office. Promptly seen, friendly staff and good bedside manner. I would definitely recommend her for your child's healthcare needs.
November 26, 2015Matteo M.Verified patient
Dr. Messinger has been our daughter's doctor for the past two years, she has a quick bond with children and is a really good guide on child development. She has been really helpful to find the best treatment, believing in our instincts and capabilities to keep our daughter's asthma under control.
November 5, 2015Amanda C.Verified patient
Dr. Messinger is great! She has been both of my boys' doctor since birth. She's attentive, has wonderful bedside manners. She listens, and she doesn't rush. I trust her judgment on various health topics that may concern me. The wait is normal. I don't expect to be seen as soon I get there as I know that she is spending valuable time with each of her patients. I love that she remembers my boys, and many details of their lives. Dr. Messinger is the true definition of "family" doctor (although she's a pediatrician/adolcent doctor :-)) I couldn't have asked for a better physician for my sons!
May 18, 2015Stanley C.Verified patient
