Reviews
Wonderful specialist who really understands children. Dr. Baatjes was extremely professional, but so warm and caring that my child didn’t feel nervous or intimidated during her assessment and follow-ups. She clearly explained her thoughts to us and talked our child through them in an age-appropriate, empowering and caring manner. We couldn’t be more grateful and feel that we are in the best hands with Dr Baatjes.
