Learn MoreTheybwere understanding of my misunderstanding of when I should have been there which was amazing. I feel like doc offices now shoo you away if your more then 5 min late and after the prep that would have been devistating. They explained everything, allowed for all questions to be asked. Made me feel as comfortable as possible. IV hurt as little as possible for in IV and I was asleep in seconds. No pain at all during or after. I was able to resume normal at home activitied and go to work the next day. I have my results in hand to take to my primary care. Dr. Mokashi is a very nice man and the kind of doctor to call himself if needed! 10 out of 10 reccomend.
This was my third visit and I couldn't he more pleased with the entire process. The staff is incredibly helpful, courteous, and thorough. Dr. Mahesh S. Mokhashi, M.D.is wonderful and explains everything in easy to understand terms.
