This is the first time I've met with Dr. Fairbanks and she is an excellent doctor. immediately she made me feel comfortable and very quickly showed she's an expert in her field. She clarified some things related to my pregnancy that I wasn't aware of in a way that made logical sense to me. [...]

Dr Fairbanks was very reassuring when she came to visit with us after our ultrasound. She made sure to explain what she saw, what to expect moving forward and answering questions.

Dr. Fairbanks stepped in because our normal provider got called on an emergency and she was fantastic. went over my results and answered all questions I had. she seemed very knowledgeable about my medical history given the short time she had to go through my chart. She also made sure to acknowledge my 7 year old and they had a great conversation that my daughter still beams about. She made us both feel so comfortable and was so down to Earth.
