Patient Reviews
Jun 14, 2017
I have been seeing Dr. Bhattacharya for 15+ years. he has always provided to me top notch care. Most recently when I was in the ER for a partial blockage, the ER docs were hastily trying to admit me for emergency surgery. Dr. Bhattacharya found a way to relieve the blockage with medication intervention, saving me from a drastic surgery and lengthy recovery time. The only complaint I have is that the office in general runs behind, but I also feel he is worth the wait!
