Wonderful experience with Dr Mehta. She is nice, thorough, and explained everything, including outside things that could influence my issue/health. She was very nice with my wife too, and got her a needed referral. My wife and I were both very happy with our experience. Also heard back from Dr same day with feedback about my labs thru MyChart, which was amazing.

I was not 100% aware that the urologist. The resident and 2 female students would be observing my vasectomy and that it felt a little late to protest when im covered In iodine and on display for the room, but I do know its emory University ... Anesthesia was great even though I had to be vocal for the alternate side of the procedure. In and out in an hour n a half.

Dr. Mehta and her team were excellent and a breath of fresh air in healthcare! Their presence, conscientiousness, courtesy, communication, attention to detail, and much more stood out throughout the visit and left a strong positive impression. I am overall impressed so far after my first visit and am much more likely to seek additional medical care and services at Emory as needed based on the positive experience I've had so far.
