Dr. Saraf has been great! On one hand I wish I didn't have a reason to meet her but I'm glad I did. She has no hesitation to close the door and pull up a chair if something is upsetting for me.
Very caring, very professional. She answered all my questions. She was just very nice, very professional.
My experience with this provider was not the best. Working in the healthcare field myself, I understand the importance of first impressions. When I met this provider for the first time, I was taken aback when she entered the room without introducing herself. Instead, she focused only on trying to pronounce my last name correctly and did not acknowledge the person who accompanied me. This appointment was a consultation regarding breast cancer, so I was disappointed that the provider hadn't reviewed my chart beforehand. It would have been helpful for her to have some background on my medical history before our meeting. One of the first things she said was that the meeting was a waste of time because she didn't have all my test results. However, all the test results were in my chart, and if she had taken the time to review it before our appointment, she would have seen that. In the end, she did find all the exam results and was able to become a little more friendly, but I still feel that this provider could have handled things a little better and made my experience more comfortable.
is very sweet, she is very polite, she listens to you what you have to say and Dr. Saraf have a lot of patience and calm to explain everything what is required. Thank you.
