Had to wait for a blood draw. Everything else was very good and professional

Initially referred to this MD by my husband for establishment of care at new office. Provider was courteous and respectful , able to address all questions and concerns at time of appointment. Plan of care was reviewed with me in a clear easy to understand way. Medication recon complete and all needed medications sent to new pharmacy. 10/10 experience with this provider and the office and medical staff

Dr Tarkey is great to interact with. I appreciate his patience with my questions. The Rx changes he has made based on my blood tests have helped greatly.

I am very grateful to the doctor; he was very kind, and I'm so glad I was able to explain my condition to him in Spanish, what I wanted to say about my health, and we understood each other very well. Thank you so much.

It's really too soon to tell. I've only had my initial visit with them. However, this is so much better than Central Neighborhood

My appointment was quick. They helped me, got me in really, really fast. And the doctor did not make me wait. I had an appointment. He had an appointment. He came right in, sat down and listened to my needs and took care of my problem. I'm very thankful to have this service. Thank you very much for following up. Have a nice day.

Very clean work setting , Dr Tarkey was very thorough.

It's very, very good.

This provider and team was so attentive and kind to my complex health situation. This is the PCP I have been looking for.

Dr explains things in a way I can understand without all that medical terms. He is personable and just a nice dr

It was such a pleasure to meet Dr. Tarkey! He was very attentive and made sure to answer my (many) questions. It's always nerve wracking going to a doctors appointment, but Dr. Tarkey and his assistant made my visit very pleasant. I'd recommend them to anyone! 10/10 ?? ??¨

Dr. Tarkey is very professional and compassionate with his patients.

My experience with this provided was good thanks

Always professional

When I arrived, I forget her name, I think it might be (name removed), when it was time for me to get my forms and paperwork that Dr. Tarkey gave me for my next appointment for my physical and for my prescription information. I think the lady's name was (name removed). She was very, very rude to me, very rude. But besides that, the lady, I can't think of her name. She was an elderly lady. She did my vitals and everything. She was very sweet, very polite. And then Dr. Tarkey himself, very, very respectful, very nice, attentive, and overall made my doctor's appointment.

Basically, it was excellent service in all areas, from reception to the doctor's attention, who is excellent and highly recommended. The doctor gave me enough time and made me feel comfortable explaining all my problems, and I think he is an excellent doctor, highly recommended, very professional. Thank you.

All was just great left office very happy for the concern I received.

The entire office was efficient. Starting with the check-in clerk and ending with the lab. I am very satisfied.

This doctor is great, this was my first time I've seen him.

For my first introductory visit and wellness exam i was very happy with the experience. I suppose i could have spent more time introducing more of myself and my health background but I understand what the doctor's patient load and limited time per patient. But I am pleased with this first visit

DR, Tarkey was very informative and patient with me. I think he will be a great doctor for my family and I.

I would like us to continue with that same doctor, because he is very kind, very cordial, and dedicates his time to you. Thank you very much, and let's hope we have more doctors like Mr. (PHI removed).

Thank you, doctor. I've never found a doctor who treated me like him. Thank you, doctor.

Dr Tarkey is very easy to talk to, explains in a way I could understand him. Very polite.

It's been a good experience so far.

All of them did a great job.

Drs and Nurse are very nice and helpful.

I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Michael Turkey. He is an excellent professional and very kind. He answered all my questions and referred me to the specialist I needed. He speaks Spanish very well, which allowed for excellent communication.

I am very well pleased and thankful for my new doctor Dr. Michael Tarkey Both he and staff members were very knowledgeable kind patient understandable and considerate. Thank you I am satisfied. (PHI removed).

Dr Tarkey was great to me listening to me an the office staff was very friendly and helpful

Very nice and informative session

Dr. Tarkey was excellent, made me feel very, very comfortable, and I feel very comfortable in his care. I appreciate him very much.

2nd time I've seen this doctor. He took the time to go over my medical history/meds and discovered what I was previously diagnosed with doesn't/no longer exist. So was able to discontinue the meds. Also brought up lately new reoccurring medical problem. He made recommendations to discontinue another med that might be contributing to this issue.

the doctor was very easy to understand in explaining may problem

It was nice to meet Dr. Tarkey he was very nice and showed interest in my health and up to date medical check ups.

My visit with that doctor was excellent, and thank you. I've always received very good treatment. Thank you.

Dr. Tarkey will continue as my provider. Liked his professionalism and knowledge base.

All the staff are kind, attentive, and very professional.

Always a great experience

Great experience

I really liked everything, but what I don't like is that sometimes I can't find an open lab, and the closest lab is sometimes closed. That's what I don't like. Thank you.

Dr. Tarkey is very personable and took his time to listen and address all of my concerns. We share the same sibling style in that he is a twin as am I. Nice doctor!

Outstanding care from Doctor Tarkey

I thought Dr. Tarkey was great. He was a great listener. He asked me meaningful questions and made me feel confident about his care and the next steps that we're taking for the health problem I'm having. So he was wonderful. I look forward to continue working with him and I've already recommended him to some of my family members.

Thank you Dr Tarkey for taking the time to listen to my history and concerns. Thank you for offering advice and providing medication options.

I would like to thank all the staff at PIH, including Dr. Tarkey and the lady that came in and took blood pressure, etc., and the office staff. And I just hope it's easy to book the next appointment, which I know I have to come in three months, but nobody said anything about booking the next appointment, and I forgot to ask, when should I book the next appointment? Thank you.

Dr. Tarkey was very cordial, ask questions and answered questions, very professional. I believe he will be an outstanding asset to PHI.. I was very pleased with my visit.

Dr Michael Tarkey was very personal and seemed caring.

Dr Tarkey was a great doctor. I was a little nervous seeing him in place of Dr (name removed) but he immediately put me at ease. Had a great visit.

On time and thorough and made sure I made it to the blood draw

This visit was very timely to my health concern. Then the provider performed in a very professional, friendly and easy to understand manner. He listened to my concerns and my care preferences. After my visit he called me for a follow-up discussion on the X-ray results and my understanding of the likely recovery time frame. I am completely happy with my visit. Thank you

Great

I had a great experience with Dr. Tarkey for my first visit. I really appreciated how he listened to me and answered my questions regarding weight-loss medication.

I was able to schedule an appointment with Dr Tarkey as my PCP was not available. Dr Tarkey was very nice, professional and listened to my issue. He answered all my questions with patience. His staff, (name removed), was also great as she assisted in clearing the issue in my ears. Overall the visit was a pleasant.

The service from the doctor and nurse is excellent.

My son (PHI removed) is already adding me to be his doctor too.

He was very good, very kind. I really recommend that doctor.

So glad to have found Dr. Tarkey. He is the first PCP that I've had that truly cares about my concerns, takes his time/doesn't rush, and makes sure all my questions are answered. He is friendly and I highly recommend him.

We lost Dr. (name removed) with his retirement, a great doctor, and now I've met Dr. Michael Tarkey. It was a very nice and rewarding experience to meet him and know in whose hands we will entrust our health. I was extremely pleased with my visit to my doctor; he is very cordial, attentive, and friendly, which is very important and reassuring for his patients.

He answered all my questions very well, thank you.

All I can say is that I received excellent care. The doctor is very kind; there should be more doctors like him. That's all. Thank you.

Appreciate the explanations and insight into diagnosing my shoulder condition!

He reminded me of my brother because he took time and he wasn't in a hurry. I felt comfortable talking to him.

The doctor took the time to listen to my concerns and provided medical guidance to my satisfaction.

Very professional. Listen to everything I had to say.

I had a great experience. Dr. Tarkey was extremely professional and really sincere and personal with his communication with the diagnosis. Plus asking if I was comfortable certain things and getting my approval before doing so which was really appreciated. I will definitely be continuing with him as my primary care physician.

The PIH corporate model of patient care has in my opinion, taken the philosophy that a 20 minute office visit is all that is necessary to assess a patients medical needs. In my case, I have a long history of medical problems that need to be known because those could be tied into what is going on with me now. Prior to almost all medical practices now having very restrictive time allotments for office visits, doctors would spend the time to go over patient history and see if there was a connection between earlier problems and what is occurring now. Especially the diseases that take a decade or more to appear, apparently out of the blue, but actually started 5, 10, 15, years ago. And knowing that, the Doc can make far better assessments/treatment options now, instead of starting testing all over again with tests and treatments that were previously done that wastes time and effort that could be used to advance and get better results currently. I think that current medical treatment models are definitely put in place for profit over patient care. It is obvious over the entire medical structure in this country. The "computer age" has brought about a mindset that AI, high speed computing and storage of information is superior to the human "doctor" is here for information input to storage device is more important than hands on a patient, and a good history. Now the docs enter the exam room with a laptop, a pharma prescription pad, and a voice recorder. When was the last time the patient had a physical exam as well as talking to the patient including questions about patient history? I think profit and pharma has taken over the role of the doctor, who has become a data and input specialist.

Hello, I was satisfied with the service. It's just that when I called, I asked for how much it would be the consultation for someone like me with no insurance. They told me it would start at 1:20. And it turned out to be 216, which was upsetting because I'm on a budget, times are tough, and it's just, there was no way around it. That's all. It's too expensive. Thank you.

Excellent service.

Yes, my experience was very nice with Dr. Michael. I had no complaint. I think he's a very nice doctor. He listened and he seemed like he's a very good doctor. It's just that I don't know him and I said when I, after Dr. (name removed) retired, that I do, I would appreciate having a female doctor because I have other, my other doctors are all male. I have nothing against male doctors, but I just would like to have my primary care doctor as a female doctor. Okay, thank you.

He is a very professional, very kind, very respectful doctor who takes his time when examining the patient. Thanks to the PIH administration for bringing Dr. Tarkey.

I was very, very impressed. I called as a new patient and they made an appointment for the very next day. The medical student that came in to see me and take my history was very, very efficient and kind. And the doctor is lovely. He's so kind. And it took so much of the worry I have about getting new orthopedes and psychiatrists and all that stuff. I really like him. I kind of deal with him for all.

Dr. & staff were very helpful with my issue. Thank you

I have a very complex cardiovascular condition being treated by specialists from outside PIH because PIH is way over its head. This was my first visit with Dr. Tarkey. He will be my PCP and as such gave a very good impression. I have yet to challenge him with a diagnosis and thus have little experience with his capabilities as a physician.

I really liked the attention the doctor gave me; he was very attentive.

It was a great experience. Dr was very patient and kind .

Yes sir all was as perfect as it could get. Dr. Tarkey was the best doctors visit I have received in years. I was listened to and received requests to my problems in a very concerned matter. I have become a very happy patient with dr. Tarkey. Thank you and the office assistance that I received.

Dr Tarkey was very knowledgeable and courteous and treated well.

The physician was great. it was your staff downstairs that miss led me to believing I was going to get my cordezone shot for my finger, and come to find out the physician was not trained to give the shot I needed for my Trigger finger.

His personality is great. No complaint about it. He's very, very, very, very nice. I hopefully I see you as soon as possible. Thank you.

It was nice that Dr. Michael Tarkey filled in for Dr. (name removed) the day of my appointment. The staff should try to reach me at my home land-line phone before calling me cell phone.

Explained the Topic at hand with courtesy and on a professional Manner.

Seen timely as appt made. No delays. Got in at 0955 got out @1020. Great job keeping with appt time of 1000am.

Loved the staff and how well they took care of my immediate needs

Dr. Tarkey was very kind with my dad. He listened to all our concerns and explained in detail and in a way that we were able to understand every single part of the plan. We felt so comfortable and appreciate all his patience to all our questions. Thank you to Dr. Tarkey.

Yes, the doctor provided excellent care, and we hope to continue seeing him. He saw me without an appointment and gave me very good service. He dedicated as much time as he could to me and explained everything thoroughly. We hope to have more doctors like him in the future. Thank you.
