Patient Reviews
Feb 01, 2020
My primary care doctor retired after 17 years. I needed a new primary care doctor. After 6 different appointments with different doctors, I chose Dr. Murugavel. She is very thorough & knowledgeable, friendly & professional. She takes her time & listens, not a ten minute exam. I never feel rushed, she doesn't over medicate & provides options with follow up. I like that she has her nurses & staff follow up after each appointment / tests with the results. Her entire staff is knowledgeable and friendly.
