Give Shalini whatever she wants because she's excellent and brilliant at both the people and task aspects of her job. If you all lose her, you lose a lot of patients. I don't know the other dr's there but they're not Shalini.

I am grateful to share my experience with Dr. Shalini. Her knowledgeable, attentive care has truly changed my health and my lifestyle for the better. She makes herself available, listens carefully, and provides clear guidance that I can follow — this has had a real, positive impact on my daily life and wellbeing.When my daughter reached the appropriate age to begin seeing Dr. Shalini, she started as a new patient and has had the best experience. Dr. Shalini is warm, professional, and excellent with children; it is a relief and a joy to see my daughter continue under her care.We strongly recommend Dr. Shalini for anyone seeking a primary doctor who combines clinical expertise with compassion and accessibility. She has improved our family’s health and given us confidence in our care.

I would not change my provider for anyone else. She is an amazing assistant physician/doctor because she listens attentively to your needs. Then she gives you her feedback on whatever issue you came to see her for.

The issues with Prime Care are not related to the medical care providers. its the bureaucracy.

I'd like to give a shout-out to the "office staff" they are constantly busy but they can multitask like nobody's business! So much stress but they never show it!💚

Not all physicians are skilled medical technicians or work pleasantly with their patients on a personal level. Shalini Sirisena IS excellent in both categories!

Dr. Shalini is caring and wonderful physician. I wouldn't see anyone else.

I gave good rating to staff assuming is in reference to the doctor not to the office staff and the despicable office manager. If we are taking overall is so hard to rate them because It is like day and night. Doctor Shalini is great the office people are awful.

She listened. She acted with professionalism.

Shalini is the best provider I've ever gone to in my many years of living. I truly believe that she takes the time and really puts a lot of effort into making sure that we get the best care as a patient. Would highly recommend her, which I have actually to family members and don't want to see anyone else but Shalini.

Shalini is the most compassionate PCP I've ever had. She's through, thoughtful, caring, sympathetic and yes, loving. She listens to you. Never rushes your visit. Always takes care to ensure you get the right care. And...she has gorgeous hair. ?

I love Shalini. She's very thorough. She listens. She's patient. And she also knows, she's very knowledgeable about, you know, information. And she's also helps you to understand the importance of certain things and recommend certain things. So I definitely love calling to her and just enjoy every single time I come and visit her. I will be coming back again.

I love Shalini! After experiencing years of gaslighting from male medical professionals, she takes the time to really listen and address all of my concerns. I feel really taken care of and will continue seeing her as long as possible.
