I have already recommended Dr. Alsamarai to others. She is a great doctor. She was thorough, and explained things and didn't get frustrated when my daughter asked silly questions.

*Dr. Susan Alsamarai - as busy as the doctor was that day, I did not feel rushed. I was a new patient and she spent quite a bit of time going over my health history, asking questions & explaining things to me. I have a follow up appt. with her in Dec. and I look forward to seeing her again.

Short wait to see Dr Alsamarai and she took the time to explain everything and the plan going forward.

I have been a patient in this group for 15+ years now. Doctors and staff are very pleasant, they take the time to listen and are very helpful. I have seen other doctors outside of this group and they just dont have the same mannerisms and you get the feeling of being a number and not a person. I would highly reccomend this group.
