I have been Dr. Tayar's patient for many years. He checked with me about once a year to make sure I am doing well. With his follow-up checking, my health has been improving. The advice/suggestions he gives me are very helpful. He is a wonderful Doctor.
Very good team
Dr Tayar is exceptionally good. He listens and takes action to check out any medical condition.
Lots of common sense.
The provider listen to me . He recommended which level of vitamin D and calcium I need to take. He explain I need to continue taking the medication for my bones another year.
She was very detailed, very professional, and very nice person. I really like her. Thank you.
Care provider listened carefully and ordered very thorough relevant blood work.
Dr. Thayer is always pleasant and listens to my questions and I keeps me informed on my health issues.
Dr. Tayar's team is awesome! Linda (PA ) was great ! She was so patient and shared so important information. Onorie (Nurse) is also great!
Only problem having to sit in the examineming room for a long time to see the dr.
DR Tayar is a wonderful professional and cares about me!
Always a positive experience. Thank you.
Outstanding care. Really looking out for my long term sustained health.
I am satisfied with my experiences with my care provider.
Yeah, the only thing I would like to comment, it was a little bit stressful to go to, you have four times blood taken, well three, and then my CT scan which they had some contrast. I wish they would do everything, you know, once or twice is enough, but it's very stressful...
All the providers that I saw were very respectful, very engaged, and very serious about my health care. I couldn't be happier with how professional everybody was and how serious they took my health, and I appreciate it.
MDA is top notch. Very friendly, courteous and helpful
Always good
Dr Tayar is so thorough in his examination. He even noticed a concern about a condition not specifically related to his field and ordered an additional test to ensure proper care.
