“The doctor was great but access to the office difficult for me as I’m elderly and unbalanced. The parking lot is on a steep incline???? This is a podiatrist makes no sense. The waiting room is uncomfortably small. 7 chairs pushed together and people standing. A Covid outbreak waiting to happen.”

“Dr. Shara effectively and efficiently dealt with my problem. She was empathetic and communicated well. I highly recommend her.”
