I just appreciate her so much. Easy to talk to and listens well.

First visit went well
  Apr 3, 2023
Dr Sen was courteous, efficient, direct, and charming. This visit exceeded expectations.
  Mar 28, 2023
The doctor was very professional, but did not seem to take any time at all to ask any personal questions - just the facts. I was required to change insurance providers after having the same primary care doctor for 15 years. I had a wonderful relationship with her. I was open to beginning a new relationship, but was disappointed with the doctor's interaction with me. She walked in, stood in front of the computer, asked a series of questions related to the chart, checked by flexibility, asked if there was anything else I wanted. She ordered labs and X-rays and said good bye. Since this was my first visit with her and time for my annual check up I was surprised that she didn't examine me, I will return and continue with her as my primary, but wish she would be a little more personable.

Friendly, efficient, and they were able to schedule imaging immediately so I didn't need to make a second trip. Much appreciated!
  Mar 21, 2023
I'm always treated very good by everyone in the office. Dr. Sen is a wonderful dr.
  Mar 20, 2023
This was my first time seeing Dr. Sen. I liked her and am happy she will be my primary care provider. She made me feel comfortable and listened to all my questions and concerns.
  Mar 20, 2023
First visit. Very professional. No negative concerns.
  Mar 13, 2023
My visit was a good one
  Mar 13, 2023
Provider was terse. She did an excellent job of reviewing my medical history on the computer but seemed less interested in me.
  Mar 13, 2023
Everyone does an exemplary job and I feel comfortable that I'm being given excellent care.
  Feb 28, 2023
I was called back to the exam room right on time but waited 35 min. after the nursing intake before Dr. Sen came in, and although I didn't have an urgent concern, I felt she was a bit rushed.
  Feb 28, 2023
I wish the doctor wasn't so glued to her computer screen. More eye contact and listening by the patient's side would be good, especially for the first appointment. It's already hard to divulge so much personal information to someone you just met that rapport building needs to be prioritized.
  Feb 28, 2023
Very Professional
  Feb 27, 2023
Dr Sen is thorough and compassionate. I am fortunate to call her my primary doctor.
  Feb 27, 2023
Dr. Sen is best described as a compassionate, caring Medical Professional whose patient care skills set the standards for others.
  Feb 20, 2023
This was my first visit and was very impressed with how she went through all my health records with me asking questions and listening to my responses.
  Feb 20, 2023
Dr Sen is very thorough.

Dr. Sen is a very compassionate, kind & thorough physician. Feel very fortunate to have her overseeing my health needs.
  Feb 9, 2023
It was a brief visit and the first time I saw this provider. I felt it was a good visit.
  Feb 6, 2023
Visit was good and professional other than I had to wait in exam room over half an hour
  Jan 30, 2023
Dr Sen went over all of the issues that caused me to come in for the visit, she carefully checked me over, asked questions, provided answers and together we worked out a plan going forward
  Jan 19, 2023
Dr. Sen, as usual, was extremely thorough. I feel that I have excellent care with her.
  Jan 17, 2023
Never a bad experience. Dr. Sen is the best.
  Jan 13, 2023
Dr. Sen was thorough, very caring, and knowledgeable. Very pleasant. She is now my doctor.
  Jan 13, 2023
I dont recommend medical people to friends, not my businessd
  Jan 10, 2023
Dr. Sen seems invested in her patients & wants them to be as healthy as possible. She is thorough & personable, & knows the protocols for the issues we face, even when things go wrong. My husband & I are in good hands with her.

My mother has Alzheimers. I was told my POA would suffice for using my signature, but they made my mother sign. I made this appointment to have her ears cleaned. Dr. Sen spent 20 minutes on a depression survey. She kept asking my mother if she wanted to hurt herself. My mother didn't understand what Dr. Sen was asking. This survey seemed totally out of line to be answered by someone with Alzheimer's disease. Most people with Alzheimers suffer from depression, and I feel like Dr. Sen was not compassionate in her questioning. Then she said I'll see you in 4 months and started to walk out of the room. I said, we made this appointment to have her ears cleaned. She looked on the screen and said oh, I will have someone come In and clean her ears. She looked in her ears and left the room. The assistant came in and squirted water in her left ear and said, sorry, we don't have the medication that should go in her ear. We're all out. She was ready to leave and I said, it's her right ear that's plugged. She said, Dr. Sen said it was her left ear. She then proceeded to squirt water in her right ear. I felt like I could have done this much at my own home. I was extremely disappointed in this appointment.

DR SEN ALWAYS LISTENS AND DOES THE BEST LOOKING INTO WHAT ALE'S YOU I'M LUCKY TO HAVE A GREAT EFFORT DOCTOR IS A RELIVE FOR ME KNOWING SHE'S TRYING TO HELP OKAY YUP BYE ; )
  Dec 29, 2022
I believe Dr.Sen is a wonderful doctor. I have recommended her to my best friend. Unfortunately she was not taking new patients.
  Dec 19, 2022
I appreciated the friendly greeting of receptionist, efficiency in keeping to my appointment time the MA's personable care and the efficient, knowledgeable & caring interest Dr. Sen provided me. I didn't feel rushed. I felt well taken care of & listened to. It was also to be able to make my next appointment 6 months in advance.
  Dec 15, 2022
Dr. Sen accurately describes what I tell her. She runs through each of my health topics and my meds. My hesitation about recommending her to others is that I feel like she sees me as a list of diagnoses, not as a whole, healthy person. I also wish she would look up from her computer more often.
  Dec 5, 2022
The visit was all positive.
  Nov 10, 2022
I feel Dr. Sen is very thorough in her evaluations of my health and very personal in her questions & responses. I feel she really cares how I am.
  Nov 3, 2022
Provider is responsive to questions/concerns, thorough, and knowledgeable.
  Nov 2, 2022
A little slow on ordering a CT scan for me. (Next visit with Dr. Sen scheduled quite soon.) Resolved today.
  Nov 2, 2022
I discussed with Dr Sen my dissatisfaction with her focus on looking for causes for my orthostatic low blood pressure, while she seemingly overlooks my ongoing neuro issues, due to a TBI (2007). We had a good discussion where she expressed her "need to explore all options", while we agreed that I have a right to refuse treatments that I may not agree with. It seems like she finally listened to ME, instead of assuming her way is the only way. I was quite impressed.
  Oct 27, 2022
Having to wait in exam room too long. Last visit was 35 min.
  Oct 26, 2022
Although I do not go to the doctor regularly, Dr. Sen is always going to be my provider. She's caring, listens, and she seems to have my best interest in mind.
  Oct 20, 2022
Medicare - provider $15 but specialists are $45 too many times have to go to specialists.
  Oct 17, 2022
Never had a bad experience.
  Oct 6, 2022
Dr. Sen was very aggressive in her questioning, and I was made to feel very judged and unsafe during this visit. Using phrases like "You can't leave" with a patient that has a documented history of anxiety is not a great idea. She treated me like an imposition at best. Terrible bedside manner.
  Sep 29, 2022
She way over refers for extra non essential medical tests that are not relevant. She spends more time on her computer then with me! She is so frustrating because she always has her agenda, not mine! Take that huge screen and computer away and look at me!!! She is going to one day completely miss a patients affect, concerns etc and something terrible will happen.
  Sep 29, 2022
Love Dr Sen. She is caring, kind, professional, respectful and extremely knowledgeable. I actually look forward to seeing her. She has a calming effect
  Sep 26, 2022
I very much appreciate the great care Dr. Sen gives to my mom despite her age. Dr. Sen makes sure she gets the tests and help she needs to stay as healthy as possible.
  Sep 22, 2022
I wish I could say that I respect the opinion of Dr Sen but she continually disregards my opinions and choices, she doesn't listen to me I feel and then I have to listen to "chats" about how she's looking out for my best interest but it's ultimately my choice it's disrespectful and rude and I will be seeking a doctor who is more willing to work with me.
  Sep 19, 2022
Perfect
  Sep 19, 2022
Dr. Sen addressed my questions and problems right to the point.
  Sep 8, 2022
Dr. Sen is always kind and helpful. She empathizes with your health problems and cares. Eden was also kind and helpful. Great visit.
  Aug 15, 2022
Provider seems to be rushed most of time - Could improve on interaction with patient.
  Aug 15, 2022
Now that Dr Sen cut back to 2 days a week I kinsa feel like she doesn't have time for me. I am requesting change PCP
  Aug 1, 2022
My mother has Alzheimer's. I often weigh risks vs. benefits when I question bone density treatment, I question necessity as a caregiver, I am stressed and difficult to go to many appointments.
  Jul 25, 2022
Very good experience
  Jul 14, 2022
Dr. Sen is very through in relation to my care - She always knows what's going on with me, which leads me to believe she reviews MyChart before my appointment -
  Jul 7, 2022
I came to office for scheduled follow-up but had 3 health concerns I wanted to speak to MD. I informed tech. MD entered room and stated she knew I had 3 health issues to discuss but because it was a short appointment didn't know if there would be time to hear my issues. MD's agenda doesn't always match my health care needs. I feel dismissed by her.
  Jun 20, 2022
Diagnosed with hyperthyroid after labs. My chart clearly shows I take super B-complex, biotin, & a multivitamin. Not sure why I was referred to a specialist without redoing my labs & not taking supplements.
  Jun 16, 2022
She's very thorough, kind, and. Gentle. We love her.
  Jun 9, 2022
Dr. Sen doesn't hesitate to refer to other specialists. I appreciate they're opening the door to deeper knowledge of potential problems, but sometimes think this is more for business purposes than patient need. This is always a judgment call, I realize, & I do like her, but common sense & patient reassurance might be more appropriate SOMETIMES rather than ordering another test or referral I reserve the right to NOT follow up on a referral when I think the solution may not be the right tweak for an issue.
