Dr. Thriveni is truly so wonderful. We are so lucky to have found her and feel so comforted that she is taking care of our daughter. She is so knowledgeable and explains things so clearly but with compassion and care. We know she truly cares about our daughter and that gives us so much piece of mind and makes following her recommendations so easy to do.

Dr. Thriveni is great, she takes her time explaining and listening to concerns and is cautious on what medication to give. I’ve enjoyed seeing her for my 3 kids.

My son’s doctor is great. She always explains doesn’t rush us. She takes the right enough time with each patient.
