Professional, friendly staff. Miss Evans at the Front desk was warm and welcoming. Mireya, who drew my blood sample, was painless, efficient, and a pleasure to speak to. Dr. Ganesan was prompt, thorough, compassionate, and took enough time on my initial appointment to get all the necessary information AND to let me know what the next steps would be. One-on-one attention, timely and efficient---this practice is doing things right! Marirose

Verified patient
Long wait and very unprofessional staff--noisy, chatty, and watching loud daytime TV. This doctor is agenda-driven and will push you in other directions other than focusing on your primary complaint, so if she's your only option, be sure to know your expectations going in and be an advocate for yourself.
"Hidden Fees!" For an annual physical she had me come in twice (two copays) and has a mandatory annual fee. It felt like I was getting charged 3 times for one service.
Verified patient
The waiting room is small, patients waiting are friendly, TV was on, coffee and water available, comfortable setting. The wait is long though. I waited for an hour and 15 minutes before I was called in. For new patients, the paperwork is long. The doctor is nice and looks thorough to understand what the concern is in order to follow through.
DR. GANESON EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL, HELPFUL, KIND, LISTENS WELL, ZEROS IN ON IMMEDIATE PROBLEM, PRACTICAL, AND VERY THOROUGH. APPRECIATE DETAILED RECORD-KEEPING ON BIG TV-TYPE SCREEN (HISTORY OF RECORDS) AS WELL AS ALL DETAILS ENTERED ON THAT RECORD FOR FUTURE REFERENCE (PRINTED OUT OUTCOMES GIVEN IN COLORED FORMAT, MAKING EVERYTHING CLEAR & EASY TO UNDERSTAND). SHE IS AN EXCELLENT COMMUNICATOR, EFFICIENT, & HELPFUL. ONE EXAMPLE, I NEEDED A PAPSMEAR, AND WAS DONE IMMEDIATELY (INSTEAD OF SCHEDULING ANOTHER TIME..HELPFUL IN GETTING THINGS DONE ON SPOT INSTEAD OF MAKING ANOTHER APPOINTMENT. SHE AND HER STAFF ARE OUTSTANDING (FRIENDLY & HARD WORKING).
Verified patient
The office building was very small, the waiting space even smaller. The receptionist was friendly yet came across as not very confident and unsure of her answers; apologizing for everything. The nurse who first took me in was incredibly amicable: she did my medical screening quickly and thoroughly. Dr. Ganesan was very professional, caring and thorough. She was very helpful and takes her time with her patients to make sure they are well informed about what is ailing them. The only complaint I have (rather a pet-peeve) is how every one of the staff answered their phone while working with their patient. These phone calls were not important; they were from friends, kids who wanted to know where a box of cereal was; reading texts I'm sure can wait until after they're done talking to their patient. Overall good experience. I would recommend Dr. Ganesan to others.
She didn't answer none of my questions & didn't ask me if I wanted to do this or that .. She was very judgmental on the things I told her
Aside from the small lobby and the wait time, I was very pleased with my visit. Definitely worth the wait and I will return for future appointments.

outstanding customer service from front desk to MD and all support staff in between. Pleasant and professional at the same time appears to be natural for this team. In addition, office is clean and modern in appearance.
great
Verified patient
Dr. Ganesan was wonderful. She really paid attention to me and was very caring. I will definitely keep going to her. The only downside was that I had to wait a long time, and the initial patient info gathering took forever and was disorganized. They're upgrading their system, so I anticipate that will change in the new year. I'd give her bedside manner an A+!
Dr. Ganesan is the ideal doctor that I always wished to have in terms of patient-medical professional relationship. It was my first to see her but I felt like I've been seeing her for decades. She made me feel like I was a person rather than an object in her examination chair. Very kind. Heart warming. She definitely knows how to take care of her patient's mind and body.

dr g is the best!!!
Verified patient
It was my first visit and I will definitely use her as my primary doctor. Her and the whole staff and the way the office was run is great.
This doctor is absolutely amazing! She made me feel welcome, she gave me great feedback, and talked to me like a person, not like other doctors who are scary as hell. She was fun, funny, and super nice! Go to her you won't regret it!
Verified patient
Although, the waiting room wait sometimes can run up to 40 minutes behind schedule, it's worth the wait. Once your in the examining room you have her undivided attention - she answers every question, making sure you understand her answers. I've never felt rushed by her...hence the long wait time.
PROFESSIONAL, KNOWLEDGEABLE, KIND, CONSIDERATE, EXCELLENT RAPPORT, THOROUGH, DETAILED, PATIENT (in explaining why regarding order).
Wonderful
I got to the office and they said my appointment was never booked even tho I received a text and an email to confirm it. I was very disappointed.
Verified patient
Not what I was expecting!
I've been seeing Dr Ganesan for several years. If I thought she was someone I would not recommend, I would have found another doctor. While I waited a little while, I was early for my appointment, I was still seen before my scheduled time.

Very easy
