"Dr. Pelzer is a knowledgeable, patient and fun pediatrician... Always listens to us and values our input as parents. Highly recommend him as a pediatrician."

— Patient reviews on Birdeye/LocalityBiz

"I have NOTHING but good things to say about [the doctor]. He has a true passion for the kiddos he sees... In saying that however, if you need to be seen for any issue other than your scheduled check ups and vaccinations you will most likely be out of luck."

— Patient review on LocalityBiz

"The front desk works hard to fit us in as soon as possible... Dr. Secory has been our family’s pediatrician for years, and we love that he’s now in this location. The wait times are typically very short, and we never feel rushed."
