I went to try and turn in my intake paperwork they would not open the door. I thought they were closed because it is Halloween. I stepped out to the sidewalk to call and see them. As I was calling a man walked to the door they opened the door for him and let him in. I said ok you will

Office is dirty, always have a wait of an hour, good luck getting your refills. I’ve waited 4 to 5 days at least to hear and then had to call asking where my refill was. Always the same answer, the doctor is backed up. I’m done, I found a new doctor today.

A year ago I found Dr. Sawhney because I was looking for someone with expertise and experience in Ayurvedic medicine. During the several times I have seen her (and taken my husband to see her), I have been so impressed with her gentleness, thoroughness, caring, and ability (in a split second) to know whether Eastern or Western would suit us best. While experiencing a very painful condition she was extremely gentle (I felt no pain) and her solution was very simple and effective. She is also very reasonable. 10 stars!!!
