As a nurse practitioner Abhilash Makkar diagnosed a skin condition I had. The skin was horrible. The treatment that he provided was exactly what I needed. I was so grateful that he listened to what I had to say.

I heard some good things about Abhilash Makkar who is a nurse practitioner in town. The pediatritrion we use was not available so I took my daughter to see Mr. Makkar for an ear problem she was having. He reassured her made her feel comfortable. That made this office visit pleasant.

I needed to get a second opinion for what I was dealing with. I wanted to speak with a doctor, I spoke with Abhilash Makkar instead. He was confident in his diagnoses. I was as well. I will go to him in the future.

I know that Abhilash Makkar is a nurse practitioner but, he has such a great bedside manner and he actually listens to what you have to say! He doesn’t try to tell you how you feel. He was so helpful.

I had a rash on my leg that was growing. I called my doctor. No appointments until the next day. My friend told me about Abhilash Makkar NP. He was very busy as well, but found time to squeeze me in. I appreciated it. Glad he made time for me as I needed antibiotics.

I get nervous when I have to go to the doctor. Seems like everytime I go, I need a blood work to find some new ailment. The last time was different. I saw Mr. Makkar who is a nurse practitioner. I was relieved I didn't have to have more blood work. I just needed to change when I was taking my meds. Glad I had someone that listened to me.

As I get older I seem to be having more medical issues. My doctor doesn't really listen or take me seriously. I was told about Abhilash Makkar who is an NP. I made an appointment. For the first time in a long time I felt like I was being listened to and my health concerns mattered.

I have always seen a doctor before, never a nurse practitioner. I needed to get in quickly so I agreed to see Mr. Makkar NP. He was very warm and welcoming and really took some time in diagnosing my ailment. I was pleasantly surprised with this office visit.

I moved to a new town. I was looking for a doctor to establish patient care. I am relatively healthy but there are a few things that I wanted to discuss a medical professional. I have a very busy schedule. I use to see NP’s on a regular basis. I found Abhilash Makkar. He took his time and answered all of my questions.

Once, when my mom needed someone to look at her after a fall, she was scheduled with Abhilash Makkar. We brought her in right away and were given a feeling of high priority. Every possible exam was completed and thankfully mom was fine, a little bruised, but fine. After having dealt with others who treated us like her encounter and situation was unimportant it was refreshing to be seen in this office. Thanks for taking such good care of my mom.

I've been to see Abhilash Makkar, NP a few times. I like seeing him because he truly cares about his patients. He takes his time listening to me about my symptoms and questions that I have about healing my self. It's important to not feel brushed off when it comes to your health.

It seems that there is never enough time in a day to get everything done. That is why I see Abhilas Makkar. He is able to calm me down. I feel as though he really listens to what I have to say without dismissing anything. I don’t feel as though he is ready to run out to get to the person in the next room. He treats you as any trained professional should.

My sister was considering elective surgery. I didn’t think that she had all the information that she should have to make an informed decision regarding her options. I convinced her to speak with an unbiased medical professional. She agreed to meet with Abhilash Makkar. He was amazing, patient and informative. He provided the clarity needed to make an informed decision.

This is my dad's favorite NP to visit. He prefers to see Mr. Makkar over his official doctor because he has always been patient during each visit. When I have been with dad, there has never been the feeling of being rushed, overwhelemd, or like we weren't being heard. That makes a huge difference for anyone who needs help or support.

I have had many times when I simply haven't felt comfortable visiting the doctor or anyone like one. Typcially by the time I get there I have found myself with a list of complaints. Instead of making me feel horrible for it, Abhilash Makkar has been patient with me, listened to me, and helped me to resolve whatever issues have come up.

Nurse Makkar is very nice. I took my daughter to see him for her terrible cold and he was very patient with her. He spoke to her directly and it made her more comfortable. He really had a great rapport with her. She is much better now and we followed his tips to speed recovery and care. I will be bringing my whole family to see him.

I have been seen by Nurse Practitioner A. Makkar and had a great experience. He is very nice and patient and listened to my concerns and problem. I felt awful when I went to see him, but I knew I would be ok. I was very comfortable with my care and my medication. I will absolutely be seen by him again.

When my husband was ill, he needed to be seen quick. He saw Nurse Practitioner Makkar and was very pleased. He really listened and helped him to decide the right form of treatment for his skin problem. My husband was so happy when his new medication worked great. He now goes into see him for all of his issues and I have an appointment next month.

My doctor was booked up for weeks recently, so I had to be seen by someone else. NP Makkar was available and so I took the appointment. He was great! He was so nice and did not rush through our appointment. I am doing much better now and will certainly see him again. Thanks!
