I have been a patient of Dr. Kurmananlieva for a few years now. Before Dr. Kurmanalieva, I had been used to going to a doctor's office and they see you and give you a prescription without thoroughly giving the best recommendation. Dr. Kurmanalieva is different; she really cares about her patients and the well-being of her patients. She does a full diagnostic, goes over the patients history, food, diet, lifestyle, family genetics and etc. She provides the most natural and healthy treatment to ensure the patient is taken care and the health improves. I am in my late thirties and she is one of the BEST doctors I have been patient under. I wish there would be more doctors like her.

I am a male patient and I saw Dr. Tamara for physical checkup. She seemed very knowledgeable about nutrition stuff. However, I had big problems when it came to billing and man's health. I went in there for physical but she charged me both for physical and also for the Dr. visitation. Later, when I confronted her, she said it was for the expertise she shared about the rash I had before. Oh, well, the rash was gone by the time I saw her and she did not give any advice on it. No wonder America has a healthcare issue. Secondly, after seeing my ultrasound result, she told me I must see the specialist immediately without telling me any good reason. I followed her direction and saw the specialist. The specialist was not so sure why I came to see him. The ultrasound scan was just fine. There goes my $100 for seeing the specialist for no good reason. Maybe this is the common practice among doctors to recommend each other for the sake of making money but as a patient, I really can't appreciate any of this.

I have been a patient with Dr. Tamara since March, 2010. I think that she is a great doctor because she has not only helped me become healthier; she has also changed my lifestyle. This lifestyle change not only affected me, but has impacted the whole family. When I first met Dr. Tamara, I was depressed and had several health problems. She took the time to analyze, ask questions, explain, and draw up a plan for the future. Because I was averse to taking medications to combat high cholesterol, reduce my sugar, etc., Dr. Tamara provided me with detailed guidelines to battle these problems through dieary and lifestyle changes. I took the doctors instructions seriously and followed them accurately and enthusiastically. Although the beginning was not easy and in fact I suffered a lot, eventually I became stronger and more efficient in my application of these changes. Soon enough, things started to be easier and smoother than before. As part of the changes I adopted, I tried to avoid unhealthy food and instead add more vegetables to my diet. This helped me lose weight and feel good. From my experience, following a diet needs planning and dedication. As a result of the dietary changes, I have lost nearly 20 lbs and I feel much healthier than before. My latest blood test showed good results which made me feel so proud of myself and very thankful to Dr. Tamara for all her concern and help. Dr. Tamara was impressed with these results and told me that she is proud of my achievement which made me even more determined to continue this new lifestyle. And now I continue following the special diet that the doctor prescribed for me, exercise regularly, and take my vitamins on time. This has overall, made me feel fit, very healthy, and happy. Thank you Dr. Tamara!
