Dr. Takeshian is one of the most caring compassionate doctors I have seen. She truly cares about her patients care. She takes time with each of her clients which is not seen often in this fast pace world. She treats the whole person and follows up on their care. Always making sure you are comfortable with your care. can not give her enough praise. In my opinion she is the BEST! I am her patient and have worked with her professionally since she first came STVE.
