It was perfect. No wait, didn’t have to fill out a bunch of forms and the staff was friendly. Dr. Taavon is straight forward, knowledgeable and keeps mw thinking about future health requirements. He is fit and looks healthy which encourages me to do the same.

Dr. Taavon is the best. He (and his nurses) always make you feel like you are the only patient on the schedule. I never dread going to the gyno because of him and his laid-back, conversational style that distract you from “matters at hand.”
