The physician is so great I wish had more one on one time to discuss issues and concerns nursing staff is very friendly but even with an appointment the waiting time is awful

Dr. Tenchavez is a rare gem, no lie. He really spends the time with you to explain you in detail, and in easy terms about your diagnoses. He is kind, patient, very very smart. I've been seeing he for about 3 years now, and I tust hime 110%. I know i can relay on him for anything from a sinus infection to my diabetes. I recommend Dr.t to any one living in the Dekalb County area. Every one from the receptionists to the nurses to the lab personnel and his aSSISANT Tisha Griffin are extremely nice and helpful!

He listened to me about concerns I had about my health and put me on meds that we thought would help my problems.I am one that doesn't like to be on medication if I can find an alternative. Such as life style changes.
