They were very calm with my kid that was screaming. They listened to my concerns without judgement and were willing to see if there were any concerns. We found out that he did in fact have an allergy to cats and I was so happy to finally have some answers.

Dr. Szekeley took the time to listen to all questions and any concerns with care. She made sure that I understood everything I was told and made me feel comfortable. Dr. Szekely is also very knowledgeable - honestly the best physician I have ever had in her field. I highly recommend Dr. Szekely!

We have been extremely pleased to work with this doctor. She has spent quality time and has worked closely with us to understand our child's needs. We are extremely pleased with the treatment plan that she has put in place. She takes the extra time to explain things that help our family understand what and why.

Dr. Rachel Szekely has always been incredibly helpful, confidence inspiring, comforting, and reassuring. She's the best doctor I've ever had, and I would highly recommend her to everyone I know who needs her services. She is the best.

Dr. Szekely is the finest doctor i've ever encountered. I should know. I've struggled with 3 life threatening illnesses for almost two generations. i've seen DOZENS of doctors in that time. Dr Szekely is, by far, the best of them. I've been going to Dr Szekely for over 20 years. I'm being insistent that she begins being a primary care physician. She has not taken the bait.


Feb 3, 2025

Excellent physician! Very knowledgeable and caring. She took time to discuss my child's condition, reassured us, and answered all questions.
