I am pleased to write this review for Dr. Grace Tassa.
I feel privileged to have such an excellent internist take care of my health. I am a 71 year old female. She has also been taking care of my 78 old spouse.
I have had other internist and functional MDs in the past. Dr. Tassa surpasses them all. She is thorough, knowledgeable and takes all the time needed to discuss my health issues and concern as they arise. She is accessible through phone calls, texts and emails anytime of the day or night. She orders all my tests, e.g.,blood tests, MRIs, CAT scans,...She shares all the necessary data with other physicians for my upcoming visits. She finds specialists to address my unique medical conditions as needed. She calls their office to expedite my appointments if necessary. In the past if I called a doctor's office I would not get an appointment for weeks or months later, even though, I would emphasize my need was immediate. The receptionists would suggest I call 911 or go to a local urgent care! I found this very frustrating.
I can go to her office whenever I wish to see her. She does an annual in-depth physical exam in her office and collects blood test and other specimens. She sometimes has suggested I go in if she sees that it is needed for better assessment of my illness. I have never had a doctor so throughly review my test results, step by step, and explain what it all means. At best others mentioned a few things quickly, and I felt rushed to finish the session.
Dr. Tassa clearly and concisely discusses her approach and her plan for my health care. I could write a thesis about how wonderful, professional, caring and dedicated she is. She makes me feel as though she is my personal physician and that I am the only patient she has! I feel honored, lucky and delighted to be under her care. It gives me the peace of mind knowing that both my husband and I are getting the best possible care. read more
