The best pediatrician you could ask for. Office staff are fantastic with helping you in an urgent need. She has always been there for my boys and me when she was my pediatrician

Dr. Grace and all of the staff made it a point to remember my kids from the moment we became new patients. It was so warming. I have been in more contact with a pediatrician during this pandemic than in all of my kids years combined and they handle each and every appointment/call with grace and it is very appreciated. Dr. Grace is warm, compassionate, friendly, and informative. So glad we found her! We were previous patients of Dr. Fridberg and any doctor that she decides to run alongside in pediatrics is great in my book!

Exceptional care! I have had my children go to Dr. Grace for 13 years now! She is so kind and compassionate, the receptionist is so funny and sweet, they always find a way to fit you in if your child is sick without an appointment. Dr. Grace remembers everything about situations and really truly cares about her patients. I highly recommend this practice!
