The doctor and her staff were very professional, warm and efficient. My wait time was about 10 mins and that was mostly due to me filling out new patient paper work. Dr. Varghese was very pleasant, took her time to explain and answer my concerns. She even referred me to a specialist. I now have a new primary Phrygian and couldn't be happier!

Very Personable. I am new patient and she made me feel very at ease and answered all the questions i had. Glad to have her as my new primary dr.
Verified patient
Visit was good overall, but practice doesn't seem to be very integrated with ZocDoc - my original appt time that I selected online wasn't available, and I filled out my paperwork online since ZocDoc said the practice accepts it, only to go to my appt and find out they don't and had to fill out all the forms again with basically the same information. Was hoping to avoid all of those usual inconveniences by using ZocDoc and wasn't able to, which was disappointing.
I felt very welcomed by the front office staff and was glad to be seen promptly. Dr. Varghese was very nice and attentive. Definitely glad I made the visit.
