“It was an excellent experience. I was a little hesitant at the beginning because it was mostly male patients, but as soon as they called me in I felt comfortable and welcomed. The nurse practitioner that assisted me took her time to listen to my concerns and also explain to me everything in details. I am satisfied with the visit.”

Verified patient
We would like to share a small concern from our recent visit. The appointment was booked specifically with a lady doctor. During the consultation, a male doctor attended instead, without prior intimation or consent from the lady doctor. While the doctor was professional and listened carefully, I felt uncomfortable due to the lack of communication beforehand. We believe it would be helpful if patients are informed in advance or asked for consent when there is a change in the consulting doctor, especially for sensitive consultations. This feedback is shared only to help improve patient comfort and communication. Thank you for your attention. Again, this feedback is not about the gender of the doctor or questioning the doctor’s intention or professional skill. The concern is specifically about the lack of prior information and the absence of patient consent before changing the consulting doctor. Informing the patient in advance or seeking consent would help ensure comfort.
Great visit, kind staff!

Best Doctors and Nurses. Friendly Personal.
Verified patient
I enjoyed my appointment here and the NP was very knowledgeable. I will definitely return for care and the office staff was very helpful and nice too. I live in a different state, only 45 minutes away but my insurance is in TX, so I return to the area for quality care and I got that for sure.
Verified patient
Very good experience getting my annual physical for work. She has great bedside manner and listened to everything I had to say.
Verified patient
The office staff was very friendly and quick with the paperwork. The doctor and nurse were both friendly, understanding, and informative.
Verified patient
The NP, D, was awesome! Very informative, great bedside manner!!! I fell in love with her. I have me a new OBGYN in the TX area because I’m from MS.
Verified patient
The doctor was exceptional - kind, listened well and gave feedback to my questions. Never rushed and open minded. The staff was fine, sometimes I felt like I had repeated myself - either on paperwork, speaking to staff or misunderstanding. I received a bill after the fact that I don't know what it is about so I will have to reach out - it would have been nice to know before I left what to expect. I am being honest not critical and would recommend my friends because I feel it's an experience that not only is compassionate but does focus around health and not other items.
Darshna is always attentive, listens to your concerns and asks a lot of follow up questions. She’s very thorough and and communicates clearly.
Verified patient
I love Darshna. Doctors are so daunting for me. But Darshna makes you feel very comfortable. She explains your options and helps you understand what’s going on. She encourages you to do better. And the office is super clean
Verified patient
I would make sure all paper work is done and insurance changed with the provider. Front staff needs to be careful of the conversation taking place, they shouldn't be talking about there butt.
Verified patient
The Dr was great. Helpful and informative.
Verified patient
The front desk staff and nurses were great, and everyone was transparent with their communication. They made it very clear that I needed to go to an OBGYN for what I needed, which was fine, but I at least wanted to confirm that the strings of my IUD could be seen. The doc acted like I was wasting her time, wasn't friendly, and was clearly frustrated by what I wanted. Loved the rest of the staff, but the doc wasn't empathetic at all, especially for someone who was expressing concern.
Verified patient
The nurse that collected payment from me was extremely rude. Told me “we aren’t going to check you today because your sick” and “if we had known you had symptoms we wouldn’t have even let you in the office” also told me it didn’t matter what my covid test results were because “you have sick symptoms”. She was incredibly rude and disrespectful. Basically told me they wouldn’t treat me and then charged me. The doctor was nice and did eventually do my check up because my test was negative. But I would suggest going somewhere else. This nurse should have explained their process to me kindly as a new patient instead of being a complete jerk. Will not be going back.
Verified patient
Excellent well spoken doctor
Verified patient
The doctor diagnosed and helped me quickly but was very efficient and thorough. Took the time to listen to my concerns as well as any questions I had and gave clear answers. Also gave suggestions for the next steps in my care.
