Dr. Richard R. So, MD

"I believe being a good pediatrician also means being a good teacher to first time parent(s). They depend on you to listen to their needs and concerns. Do not dismiss their questions as if they’re not of importance. At times even belittling or challenging them. A pediatrician should be a good mentor, caring and compassionate with newborns and new parents. They look to you Dr. So, to address any questions, calm their fears and guide them. For newborn care, I’m a No with Dr. So!"

"Don't recommend for first time moms, I felt like I immediately got dismissed after he asked if I was one. Then proceeded to feel as if he was rushing me out of the room, Even felt like he was rushing my questions, cutting me off as I was explaining things. Had concerns about colic, and breathing problems and made it feel like I don't know how to calm him down after 6/7 weeks. My baby was okay in the end, but it left me questioning if he actually was. Would be nice to feel as though he cared, one for a concerned mother and two for my actual baby."

"Excellent doctor. He does not sugar code anything and gets straight to the point. He also works well with special needs children. I would recommend him to any parent."

"After 1 appointment, I'm a huge fan. I've got 5 kids, so I'm an experienced mom. He said something at my newborns 2 month appointment that really solidified him as my choice for their new pediatrician: Treat the child, not the fever. Meaning, If the fever is elevated but baby is ok and resting, no tylenol. If the baby is fussy give the Tylenol. I love the minimal approach. He was kind, informative, and humorous."

"Dr. So is my favorite pediatrician! He is a great doctor! Kind, very knowledgeable, and patient. All the nurses and assistants are great in this office! He isn't anxious or always in a hurry like other doctors and I really appreciate that! 5/5 would recommend."
