“New patient as of January 2024.”

I have had the same doctor for over 20 years and had grown increasingly frustrated with their lack of communication and felt as though my health was not a priority to them. After switching insurance this past year, I researched and found Tessa. I was impressed with the reviews and chose her as my PCP. My first visit was extensive as I have several medical issues, but for the first time in years I felt "heard". She was engaged, asked questions, was patient and immediately began a series of tests to address my issues. I'm still a work in progress, but I have been extremely satisfied with every visit thus far. So much so that I referred my daughter!
