Patient Reviews
Jun 16, 2016
Dr. Wakharkar was my doctor when she was with Arizona Cigna Medical. I had seen other Doctors prior to Doctor W, and can honestly state that She is a genuine true caring professional who is a people person. I can attest that many of her patients, peers and administrative staff, as well as I were deeply saddened when she moved her practice to California. Thank you so much Dr. W for your concern, kindness, dedication to your profession, and all that you did to keep me healthy! Mike Lucas
