Dr. Carper is a good and care doctor for patients
Dr Carper is the most knowledgeable physician, processing information and providing answers more quickly and gracefully than anyone I've seen. (And I am seen by many practitioners.) His keen memory, preparation, and ability to listen and understand a variety of disparate issues is quite remarkable. Dr Carper's recap at the end of a visit is comprehensive and he never misses a beat, while remaining completely fluid throughout the interaction. I wish that Dr Carper could be cloned, so that every patient could be treated to such an exemplary care experience.

He was very patient with my wife and me. Since my hearing aid was not functioning properly, I asked the doctor if it was possible for my wife to join in the call so she could tell me what the questions were and needed to be answered properly.

Great doctor thanks!
He is very thorough and really listens to me. He has followed through with everything we talked about.
He was good at putting me at ease, since I hadn't met him before. He listened well, said it didn't sound like a bacterial sinus infection, and suggested I wait until Monday (it was Friday) to see if I got better, and if not, to call the office. With something like this, I didn't feel like I needed an exam, since I could point to the painful areas and had taken my temperature just in case. I would be happy to see him again in person or by video visit when Dr. Tsao isn't available.
Very nice manner on video but nothing is as good as in person generally.
All fine.

I am a long time patient of this office and of Dr. Carper. My father recently relocated to the area and was in need of a doctor. Dr. Carper was as kind and caring to my father as anyone could be. It's difficult at 82 to make a huge move and find all new health care providers. My father felt much better after meeting Dr. Carper, I think he knows he is in good hands and will be well taken care of.
Dr. Carper is warm, caring, informative and open to questions. I always feel that he is really evaluating whatever it is I came in for and not just on automatic pilot.
