“Doctor listened attentively to concerns Friendly and respectful Clear explanation of diagnosis Helpful and knowledgeable staff ”

“Dr.Tesher is kind personable and will listen to you. Overall the office is helpful but the receptionist was not the best. I email the office a month (Jan 10) prior because I had new insurance. I did not received a FollowUp so I called and emailed on Jan 19 and spoke with receptionist to confirm my appointment and receipt of my insurance. I was told that if anything such as a referral was needed I would be called before my appt on 2/1. While filling out my new year paperwork I was asked for my insurance card when I referred back to the email, I was told that a referral was needed. My PCP is amazing and sent is immediately.”

excellent ! He is a great doctor, very nice, informative and shows genuine concern for his patients. The staff is great very helpful and pleasant. He is one Doctor willing to take the time to explain and make his patients feel at ease with any new medications or new treatment options. I have very bad asthma and have suffered with this for many years and to be honest he is the 1st doctor to put me on a great treatment plan that has managed to keep me out of the ER for months now even through a tough allergy season. I highly recommend Dr Tescher and his team !
