Dr. Tekola has been our family physician for years and we love him. He always listens to the need/concern and then takes the best course of action for that health concern. He is very easy to talk to and you can tell he truly cares about his patients. I would highly recommend Dr. Tekola!

I have been seeing Dr. Tekola for few years. The office is clean and staff is friendly. He makes you feel comfortable, always provides you enough time at the visit. His explanations are detailed and clear. He always advocates life style modification. I am extremely satisfied with the care he has been providing to me and my son.

I tried to schedule an appointment for my father for over a month with no success. Not only they don't pick up the phone, they don't care at all. After a medical emergency and urgent care visit, we needed to get a referral to a specialist so we went to Dr. Tekola's office. Very rude lady in the reception didn't want to talk to us, claiming the system is down and said she will give us a call but never took our contact information. After a half an hour of explaining that this is an emergency, we left the office and now are trying to change a doctor to get medical help. Never got a chance to see the doctor, but what difference it makes to have a great doctor if you can't see her/him?

dissatisfied with the care and the office, agree with those that say they are suffering and frustrated, exhausted trying to be heard and get what's needed ... much more to come....

Dr. Abraham A Tekola is a great doctor, he is attentive, knowledgeable, he listens to what you have to say, and always gives great medical advice. The wait times for appointment visits at his office are under 5 minutes. I would recommend this doctor to all my family and friends. We consider him our family doctor. His assistants are very attentive and quick to respond to any request.
