    Dr. Ari is amazing. We are very sad that this will be our last visit with him. With him leaving, we will be doing the same. We came to this practice for him and are currently looking for a new provider.

    Dr. Ari is absolutely the best pediatrician ever. He's super knowledgeable and willing to help at all times. He has treated not only my kids but me with the up most respect. I will truly miss him as my children's pediatrician. Wish him the best on his future endeavors. Dr. Ari definitely should go down as the best pediatrician ever. I'm my opinion there is no other doctor that will ever fill his shoes.

    The experience w/ the physician was good. He seemed genuinely interested in helping my baby and I liked that he acknowledged how long the wait time was (by thanking us for waiting), seemed sincere and was professional. I felt more at ease in that he mentioned that I was doing all the right things to help my baby and the rapid tests came back negative.
