[...] by far one of the best physicians we see for our son. She is patient, sincere, and truly interested in our conversation. She is a huge asset to Valley.

Dr. D'Alessandro was so warm and welcoming, explained things in a way that was easy for me to understand and scheduled [...] at the same time that the person fitting him for braces was available, so I wouldn't have to have two appointments. That was SUCH a relief as navigating child orthotics can be scary and confusing, but I felt supported and informed leaving my visit. I cannot say enough great things about how well my visit went. She explained why [...] needed support, she provided ample anticipatory guidance, and made me feel as though this step in [...]s journey was a step in the right direction. She also gave me directions on how to use these orthotics after we get home and even some troubleshooting tips to ease [...] into using them.

Dr D'Alessandro is WONDERFUL! I'm so grateful we found her - and only wish it had been sooner. I've already recommended her to other friends for their kids.

Dr. D is the best. She educates us and always provides resources that have been invaluable to [...]'s recovery. I never feel rushed out by her and she even walks us out.
