Asqual Getaneh M.D., P.C.

Dr. Getaneh is pretty much my idea of an ideal primary care physician: Thorough and attentive in her questioning and evaluating, kind but authoritative in advising and suggesting, clearly watchful and commonsensical in her overall demeanor--never dismissive or domineering the way some doctors betray their sense of superiority to the patient. I believe that by prescribing me one little addition to my cardiac drug regimen, she enabled me to decisively stabilize my blood pressure and leave hypertension behind. I feel great gratitude toward her.

I had my first visit with Dr. Getaneh this Monday. I was impressed by her calm demeanor, her thoroughness in asking about every aspect of my medical history and my present health. Dr. Getaneh did not brush away any of my concerns but listened intently and addressed my questions completely. I feel confident that she will be there for me as I meet the challenges of being in my eighties. She has my full confidence in her abilities as my primary doctor and as a very caring person.
