“This was my first time meeting Dr Mannava. At 80 I am set in my ways. She was open to thoughts and took the time to not only check and question my health but to find out my health opinions and my life style. I was very comfortable with her.”

I was with my previous PCP over 20+ years. Visits became routine and everything was chalked up to me getting older. Time for a change. I found Dr. Mannava, Forked River Primary Care. Dr. Mannava spent a significant amount of time with me. She listened, clarified and answered all my questions and concerns. Being a new patient, Dr Mannava made sure I was comfortable with her explanations of my issues and plan of action moving forward. Dr. Mannava was very easy to understand. I would highly recommend.

Dr. Mannava was very nice. This was the first time I'm seen her. Moved to the area and was looking for a female GP. This was a wellness check that will be followed by fasting blood work and a follow up visit to review blood work. I'm looking forward to working with her to improve my health.
