Dr. Tadin is a great doctor to visit - he is knowledgeable and takes time to explain things and is open to any questions you may have. Just a very understanding and nice guy.

Review for Dr. Tadin

He has always been very warm and listens. I have had many doctors who gaslight me and do not actually listen. Dr. Viator really understands that his patients know their bodies and he works with them to treat their ailments. He is an extremely smart person who also really cares!

Review for Dr. Leblanc Jr

Dr. Dobbs has been my cardiologist since 2016. He has helped find my underlying illness and sent me to the appropriate specialist(s) for diagnostics. Since then he has managed my treatment and continues to be such a wonderful asset to my medical team. I’m so thankful for Dr. Dobbs!!
