Dr. Algu is our favorite doctor In town. He Is very caring and professional for any questions we have. We had his personal care since my daughter was born and I had been recommending Dr. Algu to all my friends and neighbors for this professional support.
Loved this doctor! He listened and explained so well!
I was recommended to Dr.Algu by a family member whose child is one of his patients and I love him so far as a doctor
Love doctor & staff.
We love Dr. Algu! He talks to both patient & parent. Makes everyone comfortable.
Dr Algu went above and beyond to care for our daughter. He responded to our message, called me immediately, and addressed all concerns. He made a day of appointment and urged us to come in sooner if needed. He took his time with assessment and answered all questions. We cannot recommend him highly enough. He's such an empathetic and talented physician.
Dr. Algu is great! He listens and is genuinely curious about my kid's wellbeing. He offers advice without criticism and encourages my teen to stay strong and healthy. 10/10 would recommend him to anyone who needs a pediatrician!
Dr. Algu is an incredible physician. He is thoughtful and explains things in a way a teenager can understand. He guides with confident influence and not overly assertive or authoritarian, which is so valuable when trying to communicate with an adolescent. My kids listen to him- we are very grateful for that!
Dr. Algu is absolutely amazing. He takes such great care of the twins! He supports us (the parents) and provides the highest quality guidance. He's so personable and down to earth, it's refreshing. Dr. Algu's care plans are effective and he's always quick to respond with guidance in between visits.
Dr Algu was very informative and listened to everything my son was explaining to him
My boys like having a male and we are sticking with Dr.Algu. He is great with the boys and I really appreciate his help in talking to my son about school and trying more. Also about health and taking care of themselves. They listened more to him than me. He is also easygoing so I think both boys would feel comfortable taking about something more private.
