Dr. Mahesh is a great doctor. She's always been there for us ever since the first operation on the kidney. She's very helpful. She remembers me when I go back every time. We love her and wish we could keep her after we age out of the system.

I was asked to pay a copay. I stated i paid in online through my chart before the appt. I was told by the desk secretary that it did now show i paid it and they would send me a bill. I did not appreciate this confrontational remark.
