Staff were very friendly, office is nice and clean. Dr. Tarkin has an excellent bedside manner, he doesn’t rush you, very thorough, goes over everything. His office was able to get my medical records from a doctor not in his group and he had and referred to the results. He’s a great dr, definitely recommend.
