What catches my attention about Dr. Machaba is her passion for her work as a pediatrician. The passion she has, actually gets deposited into you as a parent during the consultation. The first time I consulted with her, my first son was 9 months old. She gave an awesome educational background on what was causing my son’s sickness. She has a way of solving complex medical challenges with ease. She is an extraordinary doctor because of her knowledge and passion for her work.
