Dr Tochikura was pleasant and very helpful. I hadn’t had a good doctor since I left NYC 7 or 8 years ago. She ordered a number of tests and was quite thorough, even though this was just an introductory meeting. I am very pleased!

She always seems to be very attentive and listens to what my problems are and when I show her simple things she make sure to make sure that they are just simple things. For example, today I had an accident on my motorcycle and she looked at it and I didn’t even go there for that and then she did some stuff to it clean it up. Gave me some antibiotics And noted that it look like it could get infected and took care of that for me and I was extremely happy with Dr. tochikura
