I went to this office with high expectations but quickly found out that they are rude, unprofessional and will violate your HIPPA rights along with questionable actions in regards to medication dispensing. I have had to file formal complaints against this practice for a multitude of reasons and would suggest that any one who is looking for a credible weight loss provider.. look elsewhere!

Dr. Pach is extremely kind informative and willing to help with all issues. She is almost the all in one Dr I have been hoping to find. I'm extremely grateful I found her and that she opened an office close to work and home.

When Shakespeare wrote, "Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale her infinite variety", he was describing Dr. Barbara Pacholec. Her picture is worth a thousand words.And even more, her family practice treats you like family. So if you are searching for beauty, youth and a 'new you', call Dr. Pacholec NOW.
