Dr. Childs and his staff have truly changed my life. He is doing gods work here on earth. From the very moment I met him I knew I was in capable and caring hands. I’ve never had a doctor pray with me before a surgery before and to this day I still get goosebumps thinking about it. This man is the kindest soul and you can just tell and feel how much he cares for his patients. I can now be a present mother with my almost 15 month old, truly a blessing! It stinks because I want to keep his greatness a secret but I know I have to spread the word and help other women. If you want to feel heard and validated, see Dr. Childs. ❤️

I’ve been trying to get in to see Dr. Childs for over a year and I must say he is worth the wait. I’ve had pelvic pain and endo symptoms for several years and was always just told take the birth control, keep a bleeding journal, and use lube. I finally got an appointment with Dr Childs and he was running 6 months out. I waited and when the day came I was so relieved that he LISTENED to me and had compassion for what I had been enduring. I just had my laparoscopy and excision surgery this week and he even prayed with my husband and I prior to surgery that morning. He updated my husband after surgery with pictures and explained everything thoroughly. I’m hopeful that this surgery will improve my situation but if it doesn’t, I’m confident that Dr. Childs will have another plan. I’m so thankful for Dr. Childs and I’m so thankful to have a compassionate doctor who listens. God bless you!
