Our family loves the care we receive from Dr. Cathy Ward. She's a straight-shooter, not an alarmist. She listens to your questions and never makes you feel like you're being "that mom!" Her demeanor with our son is great; she's kind, gentle and patient. For a while the only downside to her practice was that the actual office was overloaded with patients all the time. However, we just came back from a visit yesterday and the office seems to be making great strides in controlling patient load and limiting wait times. I would recommend Cathy Ward to any mom in the area.
