Dr. Vikaria is the best physician I have been to in a long time. He takes his time with you, explains everything thoroughly, ask if you have any questions, and makes you feel like you,Äôre his friend. He is warm, caring, compassionate, and professional, all wrapped up together neatly.

Dr. V. Is really great. I felt like I was meeting with a doctor I had seen for ages. He put me at ease right away and listen to what I had to say. More over he heard me. Together we cramped at a plan for moving forward. And when I say together, I mean it in the truest sense it wasn,Äôt what he said it wasn,Äôt what I said it was what it turned out to be a collaborative effort towards addressing my issues and improving my health. And he had a great sense of humor would highly recommend him to anyone.
