My 1 year old son and I both recently became patients of Dr. Tomkins on advice of a friend who has seen her for 10 years(and whose 1 year old has been seeing her since birth). She has a great«bedside manner:» friendly, easy to talk to, knowledgeable. I never feel rushed when she’s with us(even if the office is clearly very busy). I love that Dr. Tomkins is open to and even suggests natural interventions before chemical ones. She is helpful in creating a modified vaccine schedule, and knows about alternative medicine. I’ve also seen Dr. Coffey at the office(Ball Sq. Family Health), and was very comfortable with him also. He is the only«Dr. Sears approved» doctor in the area! The other support staff are also very friendly and helpful.
