Dr. Teppara really listened to my concerns. I feel like he didn’t brush anything off, but also didn’t push for surgery. He had a great bedside manner. The front desk staff was very kind as well.

From the moment I spoke to the person making me an appointment to coming in, then going in the back, then seeing the doctor, and going back to the front finishing up, all the staff made me feel welcome. The staff was professional and they knew how to talk to a public person. All of them showed good manners. There were no rube staff. All of the staff really showed concern and a caring spirit from the beginning to going out for making your surgery date. Thank you for the doctor, Dr. Teppara you gave me. He was very knowledgeable about my problem. He explained very clearly and made me feel comfortable about any questions if I had to ask. I feel very safe in his care. Yes, I will recommend people to select your place where all the staff makes the difference in serving the need of the patient with care! I had a good experience there.

Staff was friendly and efficient. This was my first visit with Dr. Teppara. He was amazingly thorough, listened to me and my wife, explained everything about my upcoming surgery very well and was well informed of my overall health and past surgeries. I have total confidence in him performing my surgery and will recommend him highly.

This was the first time I saw this doctor for a surgery consultation. He was professional and courteous. The client before me was late so I was taken almost closing time but I wasn't upset for that. I'm waiting to schedule surgery with Dr. Tappel
