Amazing! Dr. Nvene was so sweet and kind. She was knowledgeable, caring , compassionate and non judgmental of any questions or concerns I brought to her attention. She took her time and paid attention to every detail- all while making sure I was comfortable, well informed and that I was completely taken care of across the board! I’m excited to have her as my new PCP.

I was sent the information for all of my paperwork prior to my appointment, so upon arrival I waited less than five minutes before my name was called. I went for an annual physical as a first time patient, however I did have a couple of concerns that were addressed accordingly. Dr. Nvene was amazing! While everything moved quickly, it didn’t feel rushed at all. As someone who hasn’t had a regular PCP in over a decade, I feel comfortable moving forward after this visit.
