“great - she is friendly & informative. she explained everything very well.”
we love Spring Valley Pediatrics overall. We have always had great experiences and they are so wiling to take the extra time with us every time we are sick. Our pediatrician, Dr Caroline VanVleck, is the best pediatrician we have ever had. She cares for my children as if they were her own. We think she is the best pediatrician in Washington DC!

“Personalized attention”
We have been patients for 7 years and would not think about moving practices. The level of detail and advocacy that Dr. Sexter gives is most impressive.
