Dr. A delivered my first baby, was there to support me through a miscarriage and on my most recent visit, told me I am 7 weeks 4 days pregnant, an absolute blessing. Through some of the most vulnerable times of my life I’ve felt loved and supported by Dr. A & the Arbor team and I am SO incredibly grateful to be a patient at this practice.
