"I work in the medical field and I know what it is like to only hear the bad. QMG is absolutely the best!! We live in Beardstown and make the drive to Quincy even though it's further from us than other places we could go. You really get the best care with all of QMG"

"They have always been understanding about any problems big or small and never make me feel like any question that I have doesn't matter. They know how to deal with parents and kids that can sometimes not be the most cooperative. I love the toys Catie has in her exam rooms to keep the little ones occupied."

"I can not say enough good things about Dr. Katie and her team of nurses. They took exceptional care of my daughter in her time of need and used their knowledge and expertise to make a bad situation as painless and bearable as possible. I hope she never shoves anything up her nose again but if I ever have a child who does I will be calling Dr. Katie and her nurses for help."
