I'm so sad to see these reviews for Dr. Vijayan, she is a wonderful, old fashioned doctor who will spend all the time necessary for a thorough examination, and not just see patients for 5 minutes. As for the reviewer complaining of getting an otc generic medicine written on a sticky note...well yeah, what are you expecting, a prescription for advil?

- Rudest staff- Incorrect information. They only know how to collect money from insurance and you- They don't give anything in writing. everything is verbal, except prescriptions. if it is generic otc med,they write on sticky and ask you to buy.- absolutely no follow up. - if get more sick, they tell you to call 911- even third world country doctors are lot better than this doctor. - i doubt whether she has genuine degree.
