What Parents Say

“Joining Lakes Pediatrics has truly been one of the best and transformative decisions we’ve made for our family. It’s allowed us to access healthcare in a way we had always wanted to but couldn’t logistically or practically make happen. Our kids are happier and healthier because no question is too small. We are talking through issues and getting good, sound advice since our pediatrician genuinely knows our kids and care is much more accessible. We could never recommend Dr. Hobbs enough!”

— Mom with a 1, 6, and 8 year old

“Having a concierge medical service available has been new to us over this past year, and we couldn’t be happier with the care that we are able to have for our kids.  There are numerous benefits we have experienced, although perhaps the greatest is having a medical question about one of our kids and being able to reach out to the Doctor we know & trust and getting a thoughtful response in short order.  The advantages over what we were used too are the incredible continuity of service (you are always talking with the same person who absolutely knows your history), the speed of response and most importantly - the quality of information.  I can’t properly express how thankful we are that a sick day or medical issue goes from an all morning or all day stressful event to one were we get help and have a plan not long after our first text.  Thank you Dr Hobbs for creating this amazing service!”

— Dad of an 18 and 20 year old

“As a mother of three, Dr. Hobbs provides a sense of calm. The ease of communication to help solve problems, answer questions, and share thoughts is invaluable. I know my children are receiving great care and I am given the time and flexibility to ask all the questions I have, never being made to feel like my thoughts and concerns are not important or crazy.  I appreciate Dr. Hobbs’ out of the box thinking and the way he includes kids in his care of them.”

— Mom with an 8, 11, and 13 year old

“Dr. Hobbs has taken care of our kids since they were born.  His new model allows us to have very personalized, responsive, and convenient care. In addition to "regular" visits, Dr. Hobbs helped us through more intense medical incidents in the last year.  In one instance, when our son was transported to a trauma hospital, and Dr. Hobbs talked us through what was happening and what questions to ask - and then took out the stitches at his house!  We are so thankful for the incredible level of care we [all] receive from Dr. Hobbs.”

— Mom of a 14 and 16 year old

“*Dr. Hobbs has been a game changer for our family! He is always approachable and incredibly thorough. Working with him has saved us dozens of trips to urgent care and more importantly, made sure our kids were treated ASAP. He always responds immediately, checks in to follow up, and really takes the time to get to the root cause of complicated medical issues. We are so grateful to be part of his practice!”

— Mom of a 3 and 5 year old

“As a busy mom, fitting in a trip to the doctor can be a lot. In the year I have been a part of Lakes Pediatrics I have benefitted multiple times from a "weekend fever strep test" or the "please listen to the lungs" drive by. I realize through this accessibility my anxiety over sick children is non-existent. I want this kind of care for all!”

— Mom of a 10 and 12 year old

“Dr. Hobbs has built a practice that is truly patient-centered, in a way that our current US health system cannot achieve. He is an excellent pediatrician, always studying the newest research and incorporating it into his approach where appropriate. He is dedicated and genuine in his concern for the wellbeing of his patients and their caregivers.”

— Mom with a 16 and 21 year old

“It has been wonderful to be able to so easily connect with Dr. Hobbs, especially via text. We’ve also been lucky enough to have a house call that included a rapid strep test at our kitchen counter! I think the very best part for us, however, has been the amount of time Dr. Hobbs is able to give. Whether it’s an exam or a phone call, we never feel rushed. As a parent who typically has a long list of questions (and often some anxiety about squeezing it all in at an appointment), this is a huge relief to me and makes our experience feel incredibly thorough.”

— Mom of a 14 year old

“Access to quality care is truly priceless! We have been absolutely delighted by the ease and simplicity of getting care for our small children with Dr. Hobbs. Our well visits feel more like conversations with a knowledgeable friend, making each appointment comfortable and reassuring. Additionally, the ability to reach out whenever we need without waiting for a call back or spending time in a waiting room has been a refreshing change. Dr. Hobbs has exceeded our expectations in every way!”

— Mom of a 2, 4, and 7 year old
