I’m writing this review on behalf of our 88 year old mother. Had it not been for this amazing man, Dr. Moorthi, our mother would not have progressed so rapidly and thriving today. He is kind, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. We are blessed and beyond thankful that she is in his care.

He is the best doctor I ever had. Extremely knowledgeable, friendly and takes time to answer all my questions. I have had to try many different medications due to an accident. He has reviewed every one of them and explained in detail why I could or should not take that medication. Extremely patient and kind when explaining at a level I can understand. I have needed to get back in shape and loose weight. He has taken time to explain to me why I could and should not take certain supplements in my efforts to get healthy. He is the best doctor I have ever had and I have had a lot due to my accident. Extremely knowledgeable and friendly.
