Dr. Parikh is absolutely brilliant. I couldn’t have a better person taking care of me. He listens to me and treats me like I’m someone who matters, not just a number.

The experience was pleasant. I had not lost the weight I was supposed to, but I had a loss. I was hesitant about coming, but I was in a lot of pain an Dr. Thomason was not hard on me as I anticipated.

So far we have met with Dr. Johnson for diagnosis and pre-op. So now I am very impressed with his attention, attitude, and professionalism. I feel very comfortable knowing he and his staff are doing my upcoming surgery.

I had a wonderful visit with Dr. Vasileff. I usually don’t like doctors because I feel they rush through things. However, Dr. Vasileff went over my X-rays, explained options, and even called me back himself to let me know what was decided. The level of care was absolutely refreshing.
