I felt very understood and heard, and the doctor was able to give me the time I needed. During the first appointment, he got a good history, ensured he understood my concerns correctly, and swiftly decided that a follow up would be needed. We were able to get that booked same day. The office was clean and the staff was nice, though it did seem more bare than other medical offices. Overall, great experience, and would recommended highly!

I am in my 80's so in my lifetime I have seen numerous physicians - my visit with Dr. Talati was outstanding. He was an excellent listener and answered questions clearly and explained details. I felt at ease and confidant of his knowledge and level of care. Too often today one can feel a lack of compassion within the medical system - certainly this was not the case with Dr. Talati. My experience was exceptional with both the doctor and his front desk staff.

Dr. Talahti has an excellent "bedside manner." He seems genuinely interested in hearing from the patient what they believe may be occurring. He asks great questions and offers helpful insights in a relatable way.
