    Gave my info to nurse, then same info given to dr. training w/my doctor. Took a lot of time. I really would have liked to have more of a conversation with my doctor instead.

      Dr. Thomas Eapen is excellent. I messaged her with questions one evening and by 9:30 the next morning she had contacted the other physicians who would be involved in possible upcoming surgery and made an appointment with me for that day to explain her findings and answer my questions. She is very caring.

      I've always had a good experience with Dr. Thomas Eapen. I have trusted her judgment and appreciate that she understands my concerns. This time I was very surprised by the feeling of being upsold on shots and prescriptions. She sounded scripted, not at all like her. I understand the culture of the US medical system being a disease care system but up until this visit I felt that she was more health care oriented. That being said, I will still see her for routine care.

      Provider listens to my concerns. She offers suggestions, explains the pros and cons of different options there might be for treatment, asks for my input. We discuss the various choices and come to a conclusion we both are satisfied with.

      Employed for UK medical center for 26 years. I have seen many doctors and nurse practitioner. I have had excellent from doctor Cowan. Who I later took care of myself to Larry jones to Hilary bates. All excellent. But!!! None can compare to the medical care I have received from DR. Eeapan. She explains what she is doing. Let's you ask questions. Give you the answers and then give you choice and recommendations. Truly holistic care!

      I never know who I will see. My doctor is Thomas-Eapen but I'm always seen by a resident doctor and then after a long time maybe 5 minutes with Thomas-Eapen.

      The doctor followed up on my health and wellness by viewing my chart. She provided me with advice on how to continue to stay healthy, and on what needs to be taken care of before my next visit.

      We discussed what treatment for future, I do not have an after visit summary completed yet from the doctor so I can't comment on good yet. I usually feel listened to and that this Doctor does care about my health overall.

      Dr. Neena addressed each of the lab reports and other health concerns thoroughly, professionally and with concern. She always gives me good, practical help that I can initiate on my own which is helpful and she was thorough in looking at my past labs in comparison to the new ones and made suggestions of further steps to take. I appreciate that her first solution is not always just a pharmaceutical drug and I like that and have many friends who prefer that. I have recommended her to them.
