  • This office is amazing. Dr. Mehta is the best.. I also see Dr Tran for my ICD and he is great also. I would recommend them to everyone.. I do wish the girls in the front office and check out side were a little friendlier.. people usually don't feel well when they go to the Dr, so smile and nice disposition would go a long way.. I mean no disrespect to anyone, just a heart patient that would like a people person to help me and those girls are not that. They are also very fast on prescription refills..

  • Dr Mehta looked over test results and gave his educated and confident feedback over which results were absolutely normal and common and which we’ll look at further. Taking into consideration my preferences to keep things natural and all the information, he was open and honest about steps going forward. I felt completely validated, understood and heard. What a great feeling! My 90 year old friend calls him, “Dr Wonderful”, so happy to have found a Dr willing to listen. I couldn’t agree more!
