He was very through. He listened to my concerns. I gave him time to input the information so he wasn’t inundated with to much at one time . As I tend to do . Because I either remember or recal things in the moment. But I’m trying so hard to hold on to the thoughts to communicate more appropriately. PLU’s I’ve know Dr Garb for 30+ years

Always a pleasure to see Dr. Garb. He is always understanding and helpful. Given how many patients he sees I realize the amount of information he must keep updated on, yet is up to date on my conditions every time I see him. Amazing.

This was my first visit with Dr. Garb, and it was a pleasant experience. All staff members were friendly and professional. Dr. Garb was extremely thorough and addressed the multitude of annual and age-related screenings and tests I need to undergo after avoiding them for the previous 5 years. So far, so good.
