Dr. Harenburg is the most caring health care provider I've ever met in my entire life. He is very attentive to details, very knowledgeable, thinks outside the box, not just blindly follows the rule book like most doctors. He ensures kids and moms are comfortable and answers every single question without making you feeling rushed. That's not to mention that kids adore him!

Dr. Bill was great! He saw both of my children for 5 year and 1.5 year checkups at the same appointment. He was comforting to not only my children but to myself. Answered my questions and brought up new ideas and insight I had never considered with my childrenâ€™s health. So glad I switched from Duly Healthcare to him!

Over the years, my three medically complex daughters have overall experienced mostly stable or improved symptoms and functioning due to Dr. Harenburgâ€™s careful management of their chronic medical conditions. When they experience worsened symptoms, he goes above and beyond to identify the cause and to recommend effective interventions. Managing the girlsâ€™ overall health is complex and requires Dr. H to balance competing objectives; he helps me as a parent to thread the needle between these competing health objectives in order for the girls to have their healthiest and happiest life possible.
