My experience with Dr Chaudhary was excellent. I am so thankful that I found this provider. I was in a very stressful situation with needing to find a new Dr. In a hurry and I am so happy it was him. He was able have me seen fast and at the same time my appt was thorough and smooth! The fee was beyond reasonable. I was paying much more previously. I also felt like he cared and that I could contact him or ask any questions whenever I needed. It was a blessing overall!

Amazing! Don’t miss out is all I can say
I woke up one morning feeling awful, within a short amount of time I had seen a doctor, got a diagnosis, got my prescription (at my local pharmacy that delivers to my house) and I hadn't even got out of bed yet! That is what I am talking about!!!!
I love that I dont have to go see a doctor in person if I dont even feel well enough or have the energy to drive and can still get seen and treated probably better than I would at the ER
Start to finish, easy process to book an appt, the provider was FANTASTIC, and a follow-up chat about a prescription was quickly responded to
They are fast and efficient in treating you
Best of all, they're available 7 days/week!
Couldn’t love it more..highly recommend
The experience was fantastic
I don’t have a lot of free time between classes and work, so being able to talk to a doctor online without having to leave campus is amazing.
Was quick with getting details arranged to make the appointment go smoothly right away when we began. Was informed on my situation and gave adequate help. Will be seeing again.
I saw Dr. Chaudhary for a follow up. He was very kind and listened to my concerns then addressed each one in detail. He answered all of my questions with compassion. I am very pleased and confident that he will be a provider who will take care of my particular concerns in his area of expertise. His assistant and staff were also very kind and efficient. And care about their jobs/patients enough to proactively help/assist in making things run as smooth as they can.
