Dr.Starosta is my family doctor, we have multiple people that come to her for years. She is reliable, honest and professional. Her medical knowledge is up-to-date, and she explains issues with facts and sciences. Her office staff are usually courteous and respectful. I am very happy with her services.

I have been seeing Dr Starosta for the past few months. I find that she is very down to earth but at the same time very upfront. I would Highly recommend her to a family member or friend... the office staff is extremely professional and the office is clean and well maintained

The girl in the front was amazing and so were the nurses! But the second front desk girl Svetha was horrible! No respect! And the doctor was so slow and inaccurate! Very unsatisfactory!
