Patient Reviews
Aug 14, 2024
My visit started out with the very nice ladies at the front desk. Kelly, and I am sorry that I have forgotten the other ladies name, were so helpful, friendly, caring, patient and kind. Dr.. Tarkan has a soothing and friendly and caring personality!! He answers any questions you have, and is very compassionate and very thorough. It is nice to have a doctor that smiles a lot and makes you feel so 'taken care of' when you leave. I would give Dr. Tarka 10 star rating.I feel very lucky to be his patient.
