Dr. Nayak is a calm listener who meets you where you are and then works hard to find solutions. She's been on top of my care since my first visit with her in 2025. I have some medical trauma and find it difficult to trust new providers. Dr. Nayak has earned my trust and respect and I don't hesitate to reach out to her when needed.

I think she's great. It seems pretty obvious that she review my record prior to the visit and that she has a long-term plan for me, depending on how things work. She is very sympathetic and she also is really good at explaining things in detail but in a way for a layman to understand what's going on.

Katrina was excellent, yet again! The process of getting Botox is stressful for me, both in the lead up and in the actual procedure, however, Katrina has made each appointment feel calm and comfortable. She explained the procedure and process well, showed great care for my state of wellbeing, and has left me feeling positively each time. I appreciate having Katrina as a part of my health care team.
