American River Pediatric & Adolescent Medicine

Dr. Thygeson is hands down the best pediatrician we’ve ever had—and we’ve seen many over the years. He truly listens, takes his time with each visit, and always treats our concerns with respect and urgency. What really sets him apart is his availability—he’s even on call on Saturdays, which has been a lifesaver for us more than once. He genuinely cares for our children and makes us feel supported every step of the way. We’re so thankful to have him as our doctor and highly recommend him to any family looking for excellent pediatric care. My husband is a pharmacist and he always recommends him to his patients.

Dr. Thygeson has been a great pediatrician for my daughter since she was born. He can be reached at after hours and flexibility at times to where he would meet us during the weekends if needed. We live 25 minutes away from his office and we do not plan on moving to another doctor due to the great experience my daughter has with him and his office for the past 5 years.

We love him! He's very accepting to our choices for our son as informed parents, and he is very attentive, a great listener, and cares about his patient's health more than getting kickbacks from big pharma. A diamond in the rough, that's for sure!

Dr. Thygerson is a very attentive dedicated clinician. His knowledge is beyond what one would expect his pediatrician. For instance he identified a rash as related to pecan tree exposure. Yet, he isn't overconfident so he leverages specialist when needed. Highly recommended.

The Best pediatric doctor on the planet. Caring, compassionate and always willing to spend the time getting my kids perspective on what they feel they need. I wish he could be my doctor.
