        We cannot thank Dr. Honcharuk enough for the care she provides for our child. We are blessed to have her on our team

        This was our first visit due to break. Our time with provider was very short, I thought it would be longer. She was pleasant to speak to. I do wish that she arrived closer to our appointment time (appointment as 1:20 and it was closer to 2 when we saw her) because I wouldn't have given my child a snack 30 seconds before she walked in which may have saved us hours of waiting at the ER that evening.
