I need to quick reliable fast quick health check I am healthy but for the reason of job search I needed a physical , I went to my doctor and everything was quick and easy not stress bloodwork was done fast I went in at 5:30pm and was out by 6:15pm .
June 19, 2024Jessica C.Verified patient
Visit went ok, but I did had to wait about 30 minutes after my scheduled appointment to be seen. I arrived at 11:20 for my 11:30, and I had already filled out most of the info on ZocDoc ahead of time, which they were able to pull up.
The doctor did arrive late, but his evaluation was very clear and straightforward, and I plan on keeping him as my PCP for a while as I continue to take care of my health.
June 15, 2024Pierre B.Verified patient
A great listener who shows love care and understanding who also extend his service in giving advise making sure he covers all areas checking my entire history and present health condition.
March 7, 2024Marvin S.Verified patient
Very nice! I came here as a second opinion to a diagnosis from a previous doctor. I felt the previous was not listening or catering to my medical needs. When I visited this office, he understood everything I felt and worked with me to find a new treatment plan. I am extremely surprised at how well it went

great t
January 14, 2022Leiquan M.Verified patient
I feel this doctor did not take my diagnose seriously, when asked what it came from he asked me what another doctor told me. He didn't offer any type of testing!. This was a waste of time!! I don't recommend anyone to go to him. He was more concerned if I made him my pcp. Now I'm back looking for a new doctor.
More than 1 year agoEshawn A.Verified patient
The doctor’s office was nice. However, I was looking for a psychiatrist and I thought that I booked with a psychiatrist. When I spoke to the administrative assistant on the phone, I asked to confirm that this was a psychiatrist and the person confirmed that it was. Again, the doctor seemed to be great at was he does but his support staff needs to pay more attention to detail and not try to rush patients off the phone.

Excellent
July 22, 2021John O.Verified patient
Horrible! 1. He screams when he talks so NOTHING is confidential the whole office can hear. 2. Super rude if i came in i want to ask questions he doesn’t even allow you to barely speak. 3. I was literally crying because of a personal situation & he screamed at me for not keeping my mask on ?? 4. HORRIBLE NEIGHBORHOOD. 5. He really doesn’t know what he’s doing. 6. He was being rude to the nurse over something that was MY FAULT! 7. He doesn’t send prescriptions correctly, my pharmacy sent me back to him & he didn’t resolve it & i wasn’t the only one complaining about that, so was another patient. I don’t know how he’s even a doctor. Never returning again!!!! Don’t waste your time.

May 7, 2021Craig B.Verified patient
Had a new appointment and that might be why the longer wait but all that aside Dr. Kothari was excellent. He was very thorough and explained everything in detail. Josie (the Receptionist/Nurse) was very friendly and helpful on all my questions. I would highly recommend this clinic and the staff.
