Dr. Hardin was so welcoming, generous, and kind. I have the fondest memories of him and the rest of the family as they welcomed me along on so many adventures!

I'll never forget Dr Hardin
Coming from his office to my room at Piedmont Hospital in 1986 after I delivered my baby girl. I had a terrible case of poison ivy
And he was our family dermatologist. Had to have a shot. My pictures holding my baby show me with pink calamine lotion all over. It's a longer story about how I got it. He was the sweetest.
It was a blessing to have such a good doctor to go the extra mile .
