Listens and explains clearly

Dr Thakar is one of a kind - i never feel rushed, she either has an incredible retention or does her homework before joining you in the room as she has all the pertinent information from last time as well as historical references - its is refreshing to meet a GP who cares, gets you and makes you feel comfortable sharing and knowing you will be heard and seen

Wesley in the Blood drawing lab was excellent! He didn't hurt me at all and he took great care in doing an excellent blood drawing experience.

Again, I made the appointment just because I thought this way I could ask about the leg elevation wedge status and I appreciate her making the appointment also about the pre-admission testing release. That was very kind and thoughtful of her. Thank you very much.

I had an appointment with my primary care doctor, Dr. Opal V. Thakar, and she was amazing! She took the time to explain everything to me in a way I could easily understand. I really appreciate her patience and clarity.

I've been a patient for about 6 years. Can't recommend the doctor enough. Always on time, doesn't rush. Knows my chart before she walks in. Helpful, kind, encouraging.
