Dr. Vijay Taunk has been my Primary Care Doctor since October 2005. She is the most pasionate and competent doctor I have or have ever had.

Overall Rating: 1.0 2018-02-12

Upon walking into their office, you get the feeling you're stepping into a third world country. The office is quite dated and disorganized. I've only been here twice, and twice too many. The front staff has no idea why you are there even though you have an appointment. 

I only made the appointment to refill my prescription since the "Doctor" wouldn't have it any other way. It's been a year since my last visit and once I met with the "Doctor" she asked my why I was there. Can you believe that? I said you told me I had to see you before you renewed my prescription. She then took my pulse and blood pressure which were fine and that was it. No checking of the ears, heart, nose etc. The whole exam lasted 3 minutes and I still could not understand one word she said. Not trying to sound racist but I think one should be able to speak English fluently if one is a "Doctor". It's one of those professions that kind of require that I would think.

After the visit, I called my pharmacist to see if my prescriptions were renewed only to find out they were but only for one month. I then called the "Doctor" and was told I was to come back for another appointment after the month expired to discuss my blood work which was completed two weeks ago. Needless to say, I'll be looking for a competent replacement shortly. 

Do yourselves a favor and research any primary doctor you are looking for. Your health depends on it.
