The San Lucas Pediatrics Clinic, located on 4100 E Commerce Way, is a doctor’s office which helps diagnose and offer solutions to health problems and gives the occasional shot. This pediatrics clinic is special because the people at the front desk and the doctor are super nice and make their patients feel comfortable. They give stickers, candies, and coloring packs to kids after their appointments to make the doctor’s office seem less scary and more fun. On top of that, they have special events during holidays such as Easter, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. They give out goodie bags filled with a variety of items such as toothbrushes, candy, toys, coloring books, and crayons to the younger kids, and this helps them to not fear the doctor’s office. My primary physician is a very kind guy who cares about his patients as he tries his best to explain everything in detail and listen to every little concern they might have, on top of making patients more comfortable by relating to their situation. The Natomas community should know about them because they deserve recognition for their hard work and their dedication to their patients.
