I wish it didn't take so long to get an appointment with this Dr. It took 2 months to get in to see the Dr., and another 2 months to get my procedure done.

I saw Dr. Tharain and Resident. They both were professional, courteous and friendly. They both listened carefully and answered questions the way a layman could understand. Dr Tharain said he would call in a few days with some other info, regarding my medical issue and true to his word called me the next morning. I would highly recommend both gentlemen to friends and family.

My appointment was at 10 and I had to drive 100 miles to get there and I sat there for 3 hours and I got to see the doctor little after 1. So, needless to say, I was very unhappy about that. Otherwise everything's okay.
