I really appreciate the fact that he is a "preventative" physician. I would rather prevent a disease than have to deal with injuries or crisis medical intervention. It is nice to have a doctor who is aligned with my values in this area.

Dr. Talavera noticed my mom's prescription strength and when she mentioned feeling weak the doctor adjusted her prescription to help reduce her feeling of weakness! So glad he caught the prescription level issue and made the adjustment! Dr. Talavera listens carefully and shows such kindness and support.

I felt blessed to be seen by Dr Talavera. His knowledge was current; he was paying attention to my concerns, and I felt expertly guided in the treatment path I needed to take. He did not exhibit "God syndrome" in the least, nor was he deferential: a perfect balance of knowledge and empathy, coupled with decisive direction on the best path to take.
