I came to this office as a new patient and have found my new medical providers! I was very pleased with my experience. Scheduling an appointment online was easy and I got ample reminders and communication from the office. Upon arrival, the employee working the front desk was incredible. She was kind, welcoming and friendly. She helped me take care of all the necessary initial paperwork and interacted with me in a professional and gentle way. I saw NP Tanya and really liked her. She did a great job explaining anything necessary and had a lovely bedside manner and was also kind and warm. I appreciated

Where do I start! The staff is lovely when convenient and they always send plenty of reminders when theres an upcoming appointment! Ive been going to this practice since July of 2020 and I thought I hit the Jack pot everyone and everything seemed so perfect. The office did mention that the doctors dont release the lab work until the follow up appointment, which was a first, because Im 34 with high blood pressure, asthma, and diabetes and that was the first time I ever heard that a doctor office doesnt release the labs when they become available to them. Next I started running into

Dr. Mara was amazing! She explains everything and she answered my questions. Also like the fact there is phlebotomist on-site. She did mention to wait 5 working days to receive lab results. I received them in two days. They will call you ONLY if there is something to be concerned about and she also told me that too. Overall, very satisfied with everyone.

Informative. Patient. Direct. Appointments are handled on time. Bedside manner is top notch. Love the in house phlebotomy, one stop shop. Mostly the same staff, but you can tell there has been a change in training, assignments and performance.
