Dr. Boparai is best care provider
Thanks Dr Boparai being patient with me and providing me a lot of helpful information. Thanks!
Takes time to review current condition plus asks multiple questions as some people (me) do not express themselves well. Permits her to ‘read between the lines’ digging for complete analysis. You are fortunate to have her on staff. Recommend her to two friends do to her being personable.

This was a scary appointment for me. But going through the process , the care and compassion demonstrated by the staff from checking in, to the medical assistant care and physician guidance really put me at ease. Even walking through the hallway was impressive. All the staff were acknowledging me by waving and/or making eye contact.
Very poor communicating.
Felt in rushed more than normal. Didn't waste time but did feel like she was more present. Good in the past but just a bit better this time. I assume it may be less patients scheduled at the same time, but that is assumption only.
Dr Vandana Boparai is simply excellent. she really cares for her patients, sincerely listens, understands the patients mindset and recommends appropriate solution.

physician was short and had terrible bedside manners. i would not recommend anyone to see them.
Dr Vandana Bopara & her staff were excellent!!
dr vandana is a good doctor
My only issue with this provider was a lack of awareness around gender expression and identity. There wasn't judgement or intolerance, just a lack of awareness. A quick training for lgbtq awareness for practitioners would be so vastly helpful in how safe queer people feel with a great practitioner who just hasn't had the exposure in their own life to queer identities. I'm speaking specifically of non-binary identities in my personal experience with this practitioner.
She took a good care of me.
Kind, listens to you and spends adequate time with you. 10. Farther away than my friends would go.
good
dr Boparai is very intelligent and caring
every thing was good

Dr. Boparai is an excellent physician. She is always kind and compassionate and she makes it seem as though she has all of the time in the world to listen (even though I am sure she is swamped!). I appreciate that she seems to be up to date on my medical issues. I feel like she is always doing her best to help me. and for someone who has a lot of autoimmune issues, that is important to me.
