Testimonials

Office Staff is great, and you can get in to see the docs right away (typically same day). I have recommended them to several people and take my elderly dad (who has several major health issues) here when he is in Tucson for the winter. BOTH docs are very thorough and take the time to answer every question that comes up. I never feel silly asking them anything, and they make solid recommendations for treatment. Both Bhats are very laid back and calming. They have an onsite lab as well as online patient portals for instant access to my own records. Very convenient. Parking is easy with handicap accessible building and entrances. I'd give them 10 stars, if I could!

I have been a patient for almost 2 years and I have multiple diagnosis, and I’m treated with respect and compassion every time I visit. The staff(ASHLEY) is the best to work with, she always takes care of our issues without any problems. Thank you Dr. Bhat and Ashley for being the best PCP.
