07/09/2024

I know I can bring up any concern and he will give his undivided attention to whatever the need is. And that’s after I’ve left his office…He or his nurse will call once they have some or more information. He will give options if need be…and ask what I want to do about the problem, before going any further.

Dr Murthy is the epitome of a good doctor. I am SO thankful I was finally able to get him as my doctor. I had some rough experiences with my prior doctor and had been trying to find a new doctor. I was at Dr Shah’s office and they asked who my PCP was and I told them was was looking for one. They recommended a few , of which one was Dr Murthy! I applied and got excepted as a patient. I was SO happy and have been 100% pleased. I wish I could get my 19 year old granddaughter in as a patient!
