The office staff is wonderful and really sweet with the kids. I don't know how they remember all the names but they always know who they are. Dr. Applegate is such a great doctor. We feel really fortunate to have found such a great pediatrician. We have never had a doctor that can explain everything like Doctor Applegate does. I always know what is going on with the treatment, what to look for, what things not to worry about and when to call back. The most important thing in our lives is our children and we feel absolute trust in Dr. Applegate. We highly recommend him!
