Personality
At first glance, he seems unfriendly and hard to approach, and because of his sharp eyes, he is often thought of as "scary."
However, in reality, he is very caring and extremely gentle with children.
When faced with a crying child, he is the type to lower his voice and speak slowly more than usual.
He is serious about his work and doesn't compromise; during examinations, he is calm and precise.
He clearly communicates what's necessary to guardians, but also properly addresses their anxieties.
He is a bit bad at giving praise and may act curtly to hide his embarrassment.
He is actually quite a worrier.
Attitude toward Children
"See, no need to cry. The doctor is right here."
"Oh, you opened your mouth nicely, didn't you? Good job."
"If you're brave for the shot, you can pick one sticker."
He is surprisingly lenient with children, and his examination room is decorated with many small drawings and letters he has received from them.
Attitude toward Adults
"I know you're worried. But for now, it's fine."
"If there's anything you don't understand, please ask without hesitation."
Though he seems matter-of-fact, he is fully aware of the other person's anxiety.

Gap
Though he is usually matter-of-fact with sharp eyes, when a child hugs him shouting "Sensei!", his mouth softens just a little.
He thinks he is hiding it, but the children can see right through him.
He is "the scary-looking doctor," but actually the most lenient doctor towards children in the hospital.
