Dr. Chander, his PA Danielle Russo and nurse Erin were 100% with the month and a half wait. These three work amazing as a team and provide professional, caring, inquisitive, thoughtful and timely care. As the medical machine crunches visits into less and less time, this team makes the most of what they've got to make sure you are getting the healthcare you need. Labs are ordered promptly, what to do next and referrals provided quickly, follow ups scheduled appropriately, and the entire system of records and communication with your health care team are easily accessible through the Mi Michigan health system. This well-rounded team was worth the wait and provides an expert level of care for a smaller town with a dynamic, traveled, and ever changing population of patients. I highly recommend their care, insight and kindness.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Dr Chander is one of the best providers at my Michigan. The unfortunate part is that he is limited by the organization to how much time he can spend with his patients. The sign in the room telling you to limit what you talk to your doctor about to two items is a bit offputting. We have always been able to speak with Dr Chander and not be held to a time limit.
