Hey i been going to this guy for years, truth be told he doesnt like spending much time with you. Brings you in and sends you right out doesnt show much care or professionalism, all in all wouldnt recommend. And the staff likes to get a little fresh as well

Dr. Kochar had been my primary care physician for 7 years... ANYONE ... Who disagrees ... Then it must be YOU... He goes out of his way ..... If you tell him your there for one thing he will go by what your there for ... communication is a KEY factor when you talk to any physician yes I agree some don't listen too you.... Dr. Kochar does listen as long as you TELL HM.. He is right on with me and I have never been misdiagnosed .... He's a keeper and I wouldn't trade him in for NO Other... !!!!!!

Dr. Kochar needs an improved bedside manner. He interrupts while your trying to explain your problems. Forgets what you have already told him, maybe cause he wasn't listening in the first place. Very abrupt and disconnected. I wouldn't recommend this doctor.

To the person who wouldn't recommend Dr Kochar ( ept) one Dr Kochar is a very good doctor and always gets his patients on target did you ever think you didn't throughly explain your problem? Two did you ask him to check all the stuff your complaining about I am highly sure if you did he definetely would of checked your pulses and reflexes and your Ent ....maybe it was you!! He is an experienced doctor with knowledge of 3o years of expertise !! Maybe you should take your own advice and look for another doctor .. I on the other hand disagree with you !!!

I cannot recommend Dr. Kochar. I found his demeanor to be practically boorish and disconnected. This was the 1st time that I have gone to a physician who did not check my heart rate, breathing, ENT and reflexes. Because of his poor examination skills, I was misdiagnosed by Dr. Kochar and the medication he prescribed to me actually worsened my condition. A doctor who needs to be â??put in his placeâ?? occasionally is absolutely not worth your time. Please seek another physician who is competent and professional.

Dr. Kochar has been my primary physician for at least the last 10 years, he is expert, detailed, considerate, & concerned for me as a patient. He is worth five stars to me!
