    The staff at the Manning Family Children's Center are the best!!! Everyone from the receptionists, to the nurses and x ray techs were so courteous and so helpful. We absolutely adore Dr. Accousti! [patient name] is on the spectrum, and sometimes he makes it difficult to get examined. Despite this, Dr Accousti is so kind, and patient, and very thorough. We never feel rushed during our visit, and he works at my son's pace to get all the information he needs to best treat him.
