Stay away from this practice. The office staff has high turnover. Nothing is done correctly. Still waiting three months for authorization to get an injection in my knee. Also turned down for the Libre diabetic system. After approval expired!!

Dr machhar is the most caring doctor, he takes his time, explains throughly and talks in layman terms. He has been my doctor for many years and I have always found him to diagnosis accurately. After being in the medical field (retired now) for many years I can relate with him and have nothing but the utmost respect for his profession.

Dr. Machhar properly diagnosed the immediate need for a pace maker. Also, an early diagnosis of the osteoarthretis. Dr. Machhar is a superb primary care physician. Myself and my wife have used him for the past 12 years with satisfaction. Dr. Machhar has a excellent manner and is a non-alarmist. He does not over prescribe medications. His follow-up is excellent. The doctor has patience and answers questions and concerns well. Dr. Machhar has a excellent network of doctors to refer to-cardiologists, orthopedist, ear and eyecare specialists.

I am not a young puppy. In my younger years I used to move to a new city every few years for business. And therefore have had a lot of doctors during my life. Dr. Machhar has been my doctor for about the past 8 years now. He has provided the best medical experiences that I have ever had with a doctor. Last year I moved over an hour away from his office. I am so impressed with him that even with a 3 hour round trip drive to see himâ?¦ I still use him as my doctor. I would not consider going to any other doctor even though they would be closer and more convenient. He treats me like a good friend not like a number out of all his patients. After he has finished with any medical exam or treatments he spends the next 5 or 10 minutes just sitting with me and talking with me. He is never in a rush. I really enjoy him. His medical diagnosis of any problem that I have had was spot on. He has so much experience that his recommended treatments have always been right on the… money. I have never waited more than 10 minutes in his waiting room. Everyone at his office is so friendly.
