A breath of fresh air! Today I had a doctors appointment. From the moment I entered the doctors office I was welcomed with a smile and a warm greeting. The staff is always friendly from the receptionist to the nurses and last but not least my doctor, Linda Chon. Dr. Chon has a great sense of humor, I feel like Ive known her forever. I had some blood work done and a flu shoot and nurse Aguilar did an awesome job, I didnt even feel it. Overall I had a wonderful experience from individuals who demonstrate not only through words but by actions that they genuinely care; they made me feel like

Tri-State Medical is not the place to go if you need adequate medical care. They more than put their patients at risk, they commit malpractice and don't care about the results of their stupidity. They should be shut down.

I hate needles and so I was super nervous when I came in to get my blood work done but Mirna Martinez managed to calm me down , she kept talking to me so that I wouldn't think about the needle . She was sooo gentle that I didn't feel a thing! She's amazing!

I came in for a covid-19 vaccine, the nurse Mirna Martinez was very professional, answered all my question. Mirna was very helpful and attentive, I brought my family after and asked for the same nurse. Definitely will be going back and highly recommend this clinic.
