This is my second annual visit with Dr. Filmar and I absolutely love him. He spends time discussing any concerns you may have and doesn't ever make me feel like I am just a number. He cares. I am lucky I found him and will keep him for sure.

As always, Dr. Filmar was professional and comprehensive. He takes the time to review history prior to talking with you and always thoroughly answers any questions. I like that he talks with patients prior to doing the exam. It helps make it a more comfortable experience. I definitely will return as a patient.

I am 23f and I had my well woman done here. Very little wait time and the Dr. made me feel very comfortable and extremely professional. I didn't feel rushed and he took the time to answer all concerns no matter how silly they seemed. I look fwd to seeing him again.

Very professional.
October 20, 2015Maria L.Verified patient
the best thing I can say is the office is clean. I found the doctor to be similar to an awkward teenager. Smiling at inappropriate times and requesting a pelvic exam although I was only interested in consultation. I did not feel comfortable with the nurse or the doctor. I recommend if they read this, to spend a moment or two with new patients. Ask them how they're feeling, listen to the concerns that brought them to the office (don't simply read a questionnaire from your computer). I think he'd be ok for women 35 and above but would never send my daughter here

He's foreign so something he did was a little different but not necessarily bad. Like, he showed me where all of my organs were when he was inside me for my annual. Besides that, I thought he was wonderful. He was very thorough and detailed which I appreciated. He made sure I was comfortable with all procedures and fully understood diagnosis. If I weren't moving I would go back to him again for annual exams.

Dr. was rushing. Made me feel like my problems weren't important. He had an assistant that made me feel super uncomfortable. He had no real diagnosis for me and seemed like he didn't know what he was talking about.

Dr. Filmar was well worth the wait! He was courteous and extremely informational. The office staff was also super friendly. I think I've found my physician!
September 17, 2014Joneyl E.Verified patient
My expectations were exceeded and that means a lot coming from me! Unfortunately I have had to see many different doctors because I'm a Navy wife and we've moved around a lot. Dr. Filmar was excellent...I literally have no complaints! He was very understanding of my history of issues and spent quite a while with me making sure he got all the info he needed. There was nothing about him that made me uncomfortable or uneasy at all and I feel very fortunate that I found such a great doctor, especially since it's in such a sensitive field!

Recurring urinary tract infections can be painful and disabling.
Dr Filmar is the only physician that took the time to ask me the right questions to allow him to accurately diagnosis my condition. His suggested treatment was spot on! Thanks to Dr. Filmare I am 100% better than the day I first walked into his office.
October 21, 2013Aimee M.Verified patient
Dr. Filmar, Was excellent! He was very detail oriented and asked a lot of question. He was kind and friendly. I really felt like for the first time in a long time that he is a doctor that can help me with my medical concerns and I don't plan on using anyone else.
