Who We Are
Dr. Rimma Pozdnyakova:

That means we call you back when we say we will, everyone knows you by name when you come in, and we worry when you worry. My practice focuses on prevention. That’s why we encourage timely vaccinations and regular well- child checkups. We work in partnership with parents to make the best possible medical decisions for their children.”
