“Dr. Joi Shaw Morrison provided excellent care to our 9 year old grandson who was in town while on vacation. He was an emergency appointment whom she graciously agreed to fit in on a busy Monday! Her staff was courteous and professional and she was just wonderful in the way. She made him feel comfortable, relaxed and virtually unafraid.”
