Didn’t have the appointment. Someone left a voicemail message indicating that more information was needed and the appointment rescheduled. I tried to return the voicemail all day and was continually routed to the emergency line and told to call back in 10 minutes. Very frustrating. Getting this survey even though you cancelled my appointment gives another glimpse into your profound incompetencies. Good luck with your business!

Ended up not having appointment.. first they called to change the time of my appointment then there was a issue with my insurance they said I wasn’t covered when I clearly was. I was in pain with a ear infection and there was no empathy or even trying to help.

No exam was done. She sat in a chair during the entire exam, then told me she was "Running late and had to go". No stethoscope was ever used and no exam was ever done.

Yes, I would certainly recommend Dr. Ghate to my friends and family.
Every time I have had an appointment, she has explained my lab results or other routine tests I had, which has been very helpful to me. We also discuss present prescriptions and make sure they are up to date.
Also, she is very friendly and anyone that is searching for a physician who cares for her patients can't go wrong in choosing her.

I cannot adequately express what an extraordinary doctor Dr. Ghate is ! She is knowledgable, professional , kindest most compassionate Dr. Ive ever had ! I was not just the next patient seen , but the only patient during my time with her .I could write many examples but will simply say I highly, without hesitation reccomend Dr. Ghate to anyone seeking a PCP physician for all thier healthcare needs .The front office staff were equally helpful, professional and kind .5 stars plus Dr. Ghate !

Dr Ghate has been a God-send. I’m in my 60’s, and as a new patient Dr Ghate discovered I had a sugar problem. None of my doctors back home had even checked my A1C. She takes a common-sense, fact-based approach, so has helped me in many other ways, including a realistic look at my weight, and helping me lose successfully. Thank you Dr Ghate!!

In my husband and my personal and professional opinion, Dr. Ghate, is one of the finest doctors here in Duval County. The services she renders to my husband and I are exemplary. Dr. Ghate is loyal and dedicated in providing the best health care possible to her patients. She listens attentively of the concerns from her patients. She certainly expresses the best interest and care toward her patients through her body language and verbiage. Dr. Ghate is a Diamond physician. Thank you & God Bless,
