Dr T’s diagnosis of my condition was the most clear, concise, helpful and comforting explanation that I had received .

Dr. Tashakori is one of the kindest, professional doctors that I’ve known and her Medical Assistant, Veronica deserves the same recognition. Dr.T really cares about her patients and listens carefully to her client before offering her opinion or advice. She is not one to jump to conclusions nor does she feel surgery is always the best treatment when so many surgeons are happy with the knife. Dr. T explores all options and leaves it up to the patient to decide with no pressure. I am happy I found her as she is competent, kind, very patient, and answers all questions in a way that the lay person can understand. I never feel rushed in her presence. I highly recommend her.
