“I want to thank Dr. Lokendra Thaler and his staff for an amazing experience! When I came in as a new patient, the wait time and paperwork were minimal, and I was seen right away. The doctor diagnosed my issue immediately and gave me a referral to a specialist. By the time I got to my car, the other office was already calling me! I am truly amazed at how flawless everything was handled from start to finish. Thank you!”

March 20, 2026James M.Verified patient
Doctor was extremely rude, dismissive and asked me “what do you want me to do “ as if I knew the answer. Seemed annoyed about the med HX. Pointed out things unrelated to the chief complaint.

This was the most comfortable I have felt in a medical office in years. The entire staff was friendly and respectful. The doctor understood my concerns. Actually had a conversation with me. The first time in years I felt like my voice mattered in a doctor’s office. I will definitely return and perhaps finally seek the medical advice I have needed for quite some time now. Thank you to the entire staff.

Wait time was minimized by the heck in chair.
I rarely give 5/5
Excellent experience.
January 19, 2026Christopher T.Verified patient
He was very help and listened to everything I had to say before trying to diagnose me. Most other doctors I’ve visited in the last year have tried to rush me out the door and throw out diagnoses immediately.
