Dear Dr. Hrach, I want to thank you for your help in detecting my cardiac condition, because of that I was able to get the medical treatment I needed. You saved my life. –AG
Dear Dr. Hrach, I truly attribute my successful cardiac outcome to your excellent and attentive care. I appreciate your taking action on my behalf in a very timely way. Also for being such a careful listener. Sincerely thanks for all your excellent care! –LT
A very accessible, knowledgeable, internist. She has been available in the off hours for emergencies. Her staff, especially Marisela, are easy to contact and helpful.
Dr. Hrach is an excellent doctor in every way.
Dear Dr. Hrach, Thank you and “Vergelt’s Gott” always for your extraordinary considerations. I feel blessed that my life is in your hands. Last, but not least, your office “crew” is the finest. Special thank you to Marisela and Jeneva.
Dr. Hrach-Thank you for solving a problem I have faced for literally 50 years. And with no meds - a dietary change! It has made a BIG difference and changed everything for the better.
I've been a patient of Dr. Hrach for years - and I can honestly say she is the best doctor I've ever had. She listens, she's incredibly knowledgeable, she cares and she always makes herself available. Just as important, her staff is unlike any I've experienced. Particularly her MA Maricella, who even gives painless shots! And the office manager Jeneva - a one of a kind, highest quality customer service person. It's not one of those medical offices where the staff barely acknowledge you when you walk in for your appointment. When I walk in to Dr. Hrach's office, I actually feel so glad to be there, and like the staff is incredibly happy to see me! And when I'm sick or if I have any questions, I call the office and Jeneva takes care of everything immediately - I have never experienced a staff person so committed to providing truly exceptional service. If you are seeking a wonderful doctor and staff experience, I strongly recommend you make an appointment with Dr. Hrach and you will understand my sentiments, and experience a medical office that will change the way you view health care.
Dear Dr. Hrach, I just want to say how much I appreciate your sitting down with me the other day, and talking with me about my current condition. Giving me that time, attention and interest was reassuring and I left feeling more calm and confident than when I came. I am grateful to have you as my doctor... and everyone in your office is super pleasant and helpful... I feel extremely lucky to have found you so long ago and be in your care!
