    She is very kind and caring and very knowledgeable. She takes her time to answer all my questions and has the medical equipment necessary to perform tests when needed. If there were problems filling a prescription she or her staff worked to solve the issue right away.

    Dr NISHIENA GANDHI has been my doctor for years. She was one of 1st doctors to diagnose and have test run on me . Plus told told me I had neuropathy in my feet. Also sent ne to a pain and spine specialist. She also told me how to do a treatment plan. She has been great at explaining the treatment. She has always treated me with respect and kindness. A few years back I had a reaction to a medication. When I called her office later 1st I had to go through receptionist. Then they put me through to her assistant. Later that day Dr Gandhi called me herself . Dr Gandhi is extremely busy because she's an extremely excellent doctor. So it takes 4-6 months to see her. Dr Gandi is extremely booked up. I have no idea why Optum is getting rid of a great doctor. I might have to change to LOVELESS OR ASK MY INSURANCE WHO ELSE I CAN GET TREATMENT FROM. WHAT A DUMB DECISION OPTUM MADE. PROBABLY IT HAS TO DO WITH MONEY. CHARGE HIGH PRICE FOR HEALTHCARE AND PLACE ROOKIES OR LOW PAYING DOCTORS IN REPLACEMENT. I wonder how many other disgruntled patients will be using Optum. Once we find a better facilities. Im sure things will change again

    She was very knowledgeable and took the time to listen to me and treat me as a person. She looked me in the eyes and was compassionate instead of having her head buried in the computer during the visit.

    She has great communication; she explained topics and answered questions in a respectful manner. Additionally, she didn't assume anything first, she pulled up medical records from other practices and doctors then asked questions. Attentive and friendly are hard to come by in the specialty.
