I have one hundred percent trust in my doctor, Shikha Wadhwani. I travel a relatively long distance to sit with her. I really appreciate her time and the genuine care she shows while I'm in the office. I never feel like I'm being rushed out. I always feel like she is one hundred percent-all in with our time. I really do appreciate her. Also the man that takes care of the front desk is really kind and helpful.
