In patients' words

"He's a great doctor. His bedside manner is impeccable. It appears that the practice needs more physicians in order to run efficiently. His competency does not make up for the ridiculously long wait times at each appointment."

Healthgrades review for Dr. Subtirelu (Starr Regional provider)

"Terrible experience. I am convinced that not even one doctor works here. Because I have been here 3 times, and was never seen by an actual doctor. Yet they were quick to bill me $1800 per visit."
