Dr. Varghese took a broad approach to our son's care, addressing future outcomes and impact of his diagnoses not ever addressed previously. This was revolutionary, eye-opening, very much appreciated!

Dr V is absolutely phenomenal couldn't be happier with his care
- 4 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/14/2025
We waited 2 hours past appointment time to be seen by the doctor. By the time we left, we had been there for 3 hours. This is unacceptable, especially for a special needs child to wait that long. Scheduled appointments clearly need more time in between.

The doctor (Varghese) was fine, but the office wait was very long

Excellent provider

Appointment started nearly 3 hours after scheduled time. This is the second time this has happened. Recommend better scheduling or at least a phone call to the patient if the doctor is running so far behind.

My provider is amazing. Dr V has been nothing but wonderful to work with. He answers every question we have about our sons care, takes the time to really listen to us and answer us, he explains things so well and makes sure we understand and feel comfortable before leaving. I really feel like he cares about our son as his patient and us as parents and understanding the needs our son will need. I truly couldn't be happier with him.
