Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

My long term go to Primary Care
I've gone to Dr Ateshim over 10 years. He is always caring, and gives patents the time during an appointment, I've learned to schedule early in the day. I'm glad to have a Doctor that takes that time. He's had to provide me with several referrals over the years all of them have been great. It's good to have a provider that has my history.

I have been a patient of Dr. Ateshims' for 10 years. He is an excellent physician, and caring human being. It's almost like we are extended family. You will usually have to wait past your appointment time; which I am willing to do, because he doesn't rush his patients and gives everyone his full attention. When a issue occurs that requires sending me to another specialist, I know he will continue to monitor my care. Best of all he always greets me with a smile and a hug.

He was attending physician while my wife was at Abrazo Arrowhead. He saw her ONCE in two days, was very dismissive toward her concerns, and became even more unhelpful (if possible) after we requested a second opinion. Definitely would not recommend.

This is one of the worst doctors I have ever had. I continued going to him for about 10 years just because I hate change. Plan on spending several hours here for your appointment. Hes NEVER on time. He does not listen and he doesn't explain very well. all he cares about is the payment. He rushes you in and out so fast you wonder how it could possibly take so long to get in and out. Wait an hour + even if early. and if he spends 5 minutes with you, it will be longer than most. Not even 1 star!!!!

Dr. Ateshim is a great dr and takes time with his patients. His limited office hours can make getting an appointment difficult. The only complaint is the frequent long waits in the office, realizing this is usually because he does take time with patients.
