He's the third one I've been to, and I'm not an uppity person or cheapskate.. I am however a skeptic in a lot of areas. Every tine is go to other doctors, they didn't know what to do with my first kid's mild jaundice or his growth (I'm of Asian decent and my wife is like 5 foot). It's discouraging to see your kid on the 20th percentile of anything, but doctor here knows his stuff, he doesn't send you to a specialist every time you go in... plus he's a very nice knowledgeable person. I've been to doctors who like to show off their med school vocabulary... ones that don't really care.. ones that love referral money to get you to other specialists. Just watching him hold, interact, and look at my kid - I just knew this is a guy that loves his job and cares for his patients. I hate to give a good review to flood his offices (potentially) but I can't recommend Dr. Waggoner enough.

The healthcare team take time to not only answer questions but also provide reassurance and education. I especially like that they talk directly to the kids about their care and engage them in small talk as well. When I used the on call system on a weekend, the doctor was patient, kind, and calming. He also answered questions and didn't just send us off to the ED as a precaution. While my kids don't have any special healthcare needs, I know they have experience working with a variety of patient needs. Highly recommend!

We had to get put on a waitlist for awhile, because Dr. Hirl wasn't even taking new patients at the time. When we finally got in, I understood immediately why she came so highly recommended. She has all of the genuine, warm, happy and funny bedside demeanor that I think all pediatricians should have. On top of all that, this woman is THOROUGH. She has never once rushed us through an appointment. She's checked every inch, run through all possibilities, offered multiple options, been upfront and honest, and I just cannot say enough good things about her. In addition to all the great things about Dr. Hirl, the rest of the staff here are very friendly and upbeat. It has always been a good experience.

She is a graduate of Dr. Andrew Weil's Integrative Medicine Fellowship and passed the Integrative Medicine Boards in May 2017. She is the only Integrative Pediatrician in the state of Iowa. Dr. Standing practiced pediatric emergency medicine for over 20 years, and today she grounds her practice in what she considers to be the building blocks of good health: nutrition, fitness, and a healthy lifestyle.

Dr. Standing often finds that when she addresses a child's health issues, the entire family benefits. She is experienced at coaching children and families through dietary changes like dairy-free, gluten-free, and anti-inflammatory diets, and is a support and resource when adding preventive care like physical activity, mindfulness and healthy habits into a child's lifestyle.

It came back clean. No one bothered to apologize LaShell Goode took up 4 hours of my day FOR A REFILL I WAS OUT OG FOR 3 DAYS and. was ready to judge me and condemn me as s drug addict. I have never, EVER done drugs and Methodone USA drug that hospitals give to heroin addicts. She never apologized for all the trouble ot ASSIMING I was on drugs because I lost ONE POUND A WEEK FOR 5 MONTHS.

I watched the test results as they came in along with a nurse and LaShell. Not so much as a sorry for everything I deliberately put you through for the last 6 hours.
