She devotes time to listen to her patient. This is so important. I was seen at my scheduled time and did not have to wait.

We've been helped and guided through daily health concerns, very hard times, and more by Dr. Fitchev. I feel so lucky to have found her, she has truly made doctors visits a happy and healthy occasions for myself and my children. I would recommend her to anyone! If I could give more than 5 starts for "spends time with me" and "follows up" I would-- her time frame with patients and willingness to check in during her off hours is simply unheard of these days among other MD's I have found.

Pros: I like them because they are a small solo practice. I don't care much for big group practices. Yes larger groups have a lot of employees to do the small tasks but I like the feel of hands on. Dr. Elena is very caring and takes the time to explain to you what she is treating you for. Emily (the nurse) always greets with a smile and has the gentlest hands when drawing blood. I barely felt it. Cons: small office so referrals take a little longer.

Dr Fitchev is amazing! She just exudes goodness and care. I love that she is not quick to suggest meds but will try a natural approach when possible. Two generations of my family see her and I just brought a friend. She personally returns calls. I never feel like I am rushed when I see her and I always feel like she is listening.

We absolutely love Dr. Fitchev! I found her first and saw her in hopes that she would at least work for my needs, and loved her so much that our entire family now sees her. Highly recommended!
