My visit was just what I had wished it would be. I was seen on time of appointment without a wait. Dr Godara very pleasant and efficient. He has a calming, patient manner that made me feel at ease right away. He gave me the opportunity to ask questions and his answers were thorough. I am happy that I was referred to him by Dr Lauze.

Dr. Godara has a great bedside manner. He will sit down and "listen"to you. If you don't understand what he is explaining, he will take the time to make sure you do understand. If you call his office there's always a friendly voice who answers and is willing to assist you. If you do have questions for Dr. G. you'll hear back the same day or the next morning. I highly recommend him.
