“The doctor is very kind and patient. His manner makes you comfortable to discuss any personal matter. Dr Parikh's sign up desk staff were very kind and friendly. My overall experience was good except for the waiting. Also google gps stops you at a library but u have to use the extrance at the left side of the library and walk all the way to the back. finding the office was a little struggle.”

“The overall doctor office visit experience was pretty good. I checked-in by one of the front-end staff who asked me for my insurance card & photo ID. The negative part was that I had to fill out all of the registration & personal health consent forms that was not unsuccessfully transferred from Zocdoc. Their office is not equipped to retrieve the consent & registration forms online from Zocdoc. Please be mindful & prepared for your first-time visit at this doctor's office to fill out numerous medial health consent forms. The attending nurse was very helpful & informative. The Colonrectal Doctor Dr.Parikh was attentive & knowledgeable in our meeting together. ”

My only complaint was that finding the office is hard. Then the wait inside the examination room felt like it took forever for a 2 minute exam. But I was greeted and triaged immediately.

Verified patient
Very friendly staff. Great experience with dr. Parikh, he was very communicative and explanatory about the issues that I have. Will continue with visits to this office and expecting best results along the way.
Completely disgusting experience. I came once, doctor wasn’t there. Over 5 people in office waiting, so I rescheduled for the following week. Same thing. Doctor strolls in after 11AM, with an office full of waiting patients. I hear 2 other people say they have an 11AM, which is also my time. Staff is rude and incompetent, they’d rather discuss furniture and weekend plans, rather than tend to patients. Terrible, disgusting, unprofessional ‘facility’.
Always professional. Dr. Parikh is excellent!
