A Special Message from Our Office

We here at Heart to Heart want to welcome you and would like you to feel at home when you come into the office. We are a family-centered medical home, not just an office.

We strive to develop a partnership with the child and the child’s family to assure that all medical needs of the patient are met.

We have created a space that feels like home so that the patient and family can feel comfortable. This allows us to provide the best care possible. Here at Heart to Heart we are family.

What Parents Say

Ginny Peter is the most caring, understanding pedi we have seen. She goes above and beyond when it comes to caring for my children. We love her so much we drive a hour to see her, because honestly there is no one else like her and I know my children our in the right hands. We highly recommend Heart to Heart.

Jenna from Waterloo

Friendly staff, prompt response time, and beautiful, clean office and exam rooms, which are a nice size. I was able to fill out new patient information from home, which is a nice option. Also, and most important, CPNP, Ginny Peter and her staff are attentive to your concerns and caring. Ginny has children of her own, so she has first hand experience.
