The parking situation at this location has become HORRIBLE I had to drive in circles for 10 minutes hoping for a space to open, I finally found a spot a good distance from this location and had to walk in the rain . There certainly was not the same amount of people in that building as there were cars in the parking lot . Absolutely unacceptable parking situation Normally this location has been easy in and easy out .

Physician is excellent !! Nurse or Technician who took EKG etc. needs to improve. First, she could smile, a little, when greeting She should now, without being told, that you need the footrest up when on this table. I would have needed a pillow. all this I got, so far, by everyone who served as nurse or technician. She was not enough experienced, it took her very long to get the EKG, which usually takes only a few more min. she did it 3x as long. Everybody, so far, could take the EKG with my top just rolled up, she insisted I take it of, we agreed on just the arms off. She needs to watch & be told by others how to be a good nurse/technician.

I'm filling this out for my elderly father. I attend appointments with him. Everything is explained to him on his level of understanding. I'm given time to ask any questions as well. Dr. Muthappan takes the time to explain any concerns we have to us both. My father is confident of his care. Thank you.

Awesome doctor

This appt was a scheduled yearly. I have so many questions following this appt because of the recommendation of a drug that Dr Muthappan feels I should be taking. Have been trying to communicate thru MyChart but it leads to more questions.
