Patient Reviews
Dec 12, 2020
Caring physician and person. His appointments are not rushed and will answer any question you may have. He diagnosed the type of epilepsy I have and prescribed a medication that easily controls my seizures. Due to insurance, I had to switch doctors which resulted in an outbreak of seizures due to the doctor recommending a different drug. Luckily, my insurance changed and I was able to return to Dr. Tao and my previous medication. Needless to say, I am very pleased to back as a patient of Dr. Tao.
