“What stood out to Me most about Dr. Pabla was his deep questioning to learn about My lifestyle and family history before recommending the typical one size fits all approach to medicine. Great price on blood work and labs.”

Dr Pabla desires to find root causes for your illness, and treat the cause and not the symptom. I appreciate his approach to treating his patients.
August 27, 2025Michael A.Verified patient
Dr. Pabla is an outstanding MD. Great listener and takes TIME to listen and explain things. He’s current on new research and treats the whole person and not just one body system. Highly recommend and I travel 2 1/2 hours to see him because his care is so outstanding.
June 17, 2025Danna M.Verified patient
Dr. Pabla was great! He truly listened to my concerns and gave me a game plan to move forward. He also is extremely knowledgeable in understanding the body’s pathways, so it’s easy to trust he knows what he’s doing :))

Dr. Pabla was very thorough, compassionate, & extremely knowledgeable regarding my diagnoses, treatment, & potential outcomes. He took my thoughts & feelings to heart & addressed every concern in an empathetic manner, bringing every factor into consideration that may alter my plan of care and skillfully brought everything together to develop a customized, evidence-based strategy and kindly discussed how we were going to implement the plan as a team. He spent a great deal of time with me as if I was the only patient he had. He was timely, I didn’t have to wait, I only needed to sit back and feel respected and cared for while my labs were reviewed and thoroughly explained, followed by a brilliant and easy plan of care to follow. I was given hope, great advice, & received exemplary care. I highly recommend Dr.Pabla.

July 11, 2024Amanda B.Verified patient
Everyone in the office was incredibly patient and understanding with me. For that, I am so thankful. My appointment was short because of a very long list of unfortunate events, but they accommodated me and still spoke to me with respect and treated me so well. The doctor listened to me and gave me a starting point game plan while also explaining it clearly and helping me understand what I needed to do. I very much recommend him and this practice.

August 8, 2023Dennis C.Verified patient
Dr. Pabla took his time to explain everything involved with my trigger point injections today. There was no pressure or rush about the appointment or procedure. Office staff were super kind and explained everything well.
More than 1 year agoDaniel M.Verified patient
This was a very good first appointment as I am seeking a doctor to replace my former one who retired. Dr. Paula explained everything clearly re. how he will provide care for my specific problems. After this thorough 1 hr meeting and discussion following his prescribed lab work, I will likely choose him as my permanent doctor.
April 26, 2023Dennis C.Verified patient
Dr. Pabla is outstanding! He spent time explaining diagnoses and options + attentive and an active listener.
And the staff are warm, friendly and helpful.
And I’d steal Frank in a heartbeat!
January 2, 2023Judy P.Verified patient
Doctor Pabla is the smartest doctor I have ever met. He works to get to the bottom of the health issue and not just push a treatment to mask a symptom. He takes the time necessary to answer our questions.
December 29, 2022Jesse C.Verified patient
I was referred to Dr. Pabla by two friends who also see him. As expected, Dr. Pabla took his time to learn about my current conditions and meds. He made immediate recommendations, but also set up another appointment for after he has a chance to review my records from my other medical providers. I feel as if he really took the time to take a comprehensive look at my situation in the first meeting, and I trust that he will look over my records once he receives them all. I am excited to move forward with him!
November 2, 2022Gary T.Verified patientVideo visit

It was wonderful to find a Doctor who is willing to speak truth in the midst of this crazy world of Covid! He is not bound to a narrative but is using his experience and knowledge to provide the best treatment possible for his clients!
I will recommend him to everyone!
October 6, 2021Ken Y.Verified patient
This is an office of traditionally trained medical doctors who are using that knowledge to treat their patients' illness CAUSES, not patch away at the symptoms. You will be shocked at first that they take so much time to explain your problems and how they will help you. And their enthusiasm, yes I said it, doctors with enthusiasm, is motivational to say the least. From your first phone call, you are handled with professionalism and care.
August 27, 2021Jodi F.Verified patient
Best doctor visit ever! I feel like I’ve finally met a doctor who I think will help me. I’m so relieved by that thought! Caring staff and doctor. Very genuine.

Was a great meeting. Not the typically 15 minute here you go and out the door appointment. Thoroughly explained all my questions and what my next steps are. I enjoy hearing the next steps as it keeps me in a positive mindset with my health. I feel more in control of my own health. Great experience
December 2, 2020Karla S.Verified patient
The team is great! Dr Amich and Dr Pabla saw me for my first appointment where they collaborated. I was very impressed with their knowledge and ability to explain my issues and how we, as a team, were going to tackle my skin problems. I had a follow up with Dr Amich and he was so excited to see how well my skin was responding. It was wonderful to see him genuinely share this emotion. I love that he is showing me how to properly care for my skin instead of just giving me a temporary "band-aid." I'm so glad I found Dr. Amich and Dr. Pabla.
October 10, 2020Megann M.Verified patient
I've never had a doctor before who has such a vast knowledge of the human body and actually applies it all in his practice by looking at my collective symptoms (not just where it hurts) and the whole body to determine what the root cause is. I've never had a doctor that personally calls me on a Saturday evening after receiving my request for an appointment to learn more about my condition. I've never had a doctor whose standard practice is to review my entire medical history and all of my symptoms for 6 hours to come up with a plan before my appointment. I've never had a doctor who then spends two hours with me systematically going through each group of symptoms and how he intends to help me eliminate them. Dr. Pabla isn't even in my insurance network, but I can't see myself ever going to a different doctor after the care and expertise he has shown. The dude even looked up my company's website, which I didn't list, to learn more about the company I started--I'm assuming to learn how it might relate to and affect my health. (Disclaimer: I have not actually started his treatment plan yet. But this is more a commentary on his different approach, his above-and-beyond dedication to each patient, and his impressive understanding of the human body. )
