In moving to a new area, for a senior citizen, the medical infrastructure can be a source of great comfort and reassurance or the opportunity to participate in a game of chance with dire consequences to your health. The best source of information is someone in the medical profession who knows the lay of the land and who knows you. That's how we found Dr. Jeffrey Amen, via the recommendations of two PCP's. He was fantastic. Then, too soon, he retired. We took a chance. Would the doctor who took over his practice have the same skills combined with warmth and friendliness? The answer, and the reason for my recommendation, is yes. YES, YES! His successor, whom he chose, is Dr. Leila Osovar-Kermani, and she carries forward the caliber of service combined with friendliness, that we thought we would never find again. I am a retired physician, and not the average consumer. I am particularly critical of less than the ideal in the practitioners of health care, highly critical of bureaucracy that distances doctor from patient. In her sparkling clean, easily accessible office, with loads of parking, there she is, exactly on time, and without muss or fuss, she performs her examination while making you feel totally comfortable and welcome. Without reservation, you will enjoy skillful, attentive care in her hands, and leave the office with a new respect for what healthcare, in the right hands, can be. She is a real find. Thank you PCP's and Dr. Amen!
