Dr. Taras is the absolute best doctor I have ever been to in my adult years! He spent a lot of time getting to know me as a person and really listened to what I needed as a patient. He is kind, caring, honest and extremely knowledgeable in his field. His staff is amazing too. I left his office feeling like someone finally cared about me and my needs. I will highly recommend him to all my family and friends! Everyone needs a great doctor like Dr. Taras.

I have been seeing Dr. Taras for over 15 years - through surgeries, menopause etc. He is a great listener and does his best to find a solution. He keeps himself up to date on latest research. His bedside manner, honesty and kindness can get you through the tough times. He is also available when you need him regardless of the symptoms- he doesn’t just care about one part of your body but the whole person. AND his staff could not be nicer or more accommodating …often the biggest complaint of having to see a doctor. Give him a call.

Pam Paterson

I have been a patient of Dr. Taras for over 20 years. I have not been treated by any other doctor who is so caring about his patients — who not only treats medical issues, but who helps with emotional issues as well. I’m particularly thrilled that Dr. Taras focuses on helping his older patients cope with their menopause symptoms in a way that greatly reduces side effects and stress. He provides patients with an email address and encourages them to contact him at any time. I know from personal experience how wonderful it is to have a physician who is accessible. His staff is equally amazing, with the office taking on the atmosphere of a family. Whenever I have needed to see Dr. Taras on an urgent basis, his staff has accommodated me in even if it required them to stay late. Dr. Taras has never made me feel uncomfortable about anything, and I don’t hesitate in speaking with him about any issues that might arise. Dr. Taras is truly one in a million, and I highly recommend him.
