    I really enjoyed the consultation with the Doctor, she cleared all our doubts, gave us confidence with detailed explanations about the treatment that will be done. Unhurried consultation, very caring with the child, made everyone feel comfortable to ask questions.

    Dr. Alessandra is an excellent listener and very empathetic, providing accurate information about our concerns. She attended to us and listened without rushing and without judgment, examining with excellence and providing the necessary reassurance so we could investigate the precise diagnosis. We left with a more peaceful heart with the certainty that we were in good hands.

    Dr. Alessandra started treating my son when he was hospitalized in a severe state of the disease that had just been diagnosed, and from the first appointment, even in a chaotic moment, I already knew that she was the one I wanted treating my son. In addition to all her knowledge, she has empathy. She guided us through the entire difficult process until we reached the long-awaited remission. Today we celebrate and continue with maintenance treatment. In the office, the service is punctual and my son loves the comfort of the bathroom and the examination table lol. Her reports are so thorough that other doctors when they read them praise them. She is an excellent professional, I only have to be grateful in these 8 months. You can trust the treatment of your children with her, she will surely find the solution.

    Dr. Alessandra is an angel that God placed in our path, during an emergency and hospitalization at Vitória for my 9-month-old baby. Her care is detailed, delicate and attentive. She understands the anxieties and concerns we have as parents. She makes a point of explaining everything and makes you feel comfortable asking questions. After all the attention and care, we only have gratitude. The follow-up consultation is punctual and she is always very attentive to the patient's evaluation. The clinic's secretary is also a sweetheart, very kind, polite and friendly, with a willingness to help.
