“I was referred to Dr. Makhija by my primary care physician when I developed health issues. She provided a very professional & personal care. She makes you feel comfortable and relaxed in her office. Every time I had a question, she responded in a timely manner. It was nice to be able to obtain information when I needed it most. Her treatment plan was clear and concise. My opinion is that her practice is designed for patients personally not as a number. I would highly recommend Dr. Makhija!”
