    Dr. T is fantastic, she genuinely takes time to speak with and listen to me. This was just a check-up, so no issues but we reviewed the past year and things looking forward.

    Dr. Tsarnakova is hands down, the best provider in all of Mount Nittany. She always listens to my concerns and comes up with an appropriate game plan. She addresses any questions that I have. Could not be more happy with my primary care provider.

    I've been with her for 3 or 4 years now, when I moved here. She has allows been there for me. I can always get an appointment with someone in her office. I also email her, probably more often then I need to and she always returns my message.
