Mairin Joseph-Talreja, MD

Her nurse was fabulous. She treated me like a real woman and I just love her

This is [...] and I would just like to say that Dr. Joseph is one of the best doctors that I have met in the last, I'm 87 years old and I'll say in the last 12 months of my life. In other words, if she could doctor on me from my little toe to the top of my head, I'm serious, I would let her doctor on me for that because she was very thorough. She went back and talked to me about my records as far back as she could see and I could tell that. So I thank you very kindly. I could say more but I won't take up y'all's fair time because I'm just waiting to where I can get a chance to see her again for some of that other stuff that's wrong with me. Thank you.

Dr. Joseph is a thorough, caring doctor, snd always takes time to listen and discuss processes, choices, and issues. I appreciate her kindness so very much.

Good listener and knowledgeable listener.

Thanks

Doctor and the 'fellow' were very knowledgeable and answered all my questions and listened carefully to my concerns. I felt comfortable asking questions.

Exceptional patient care experience. All staff were friendly and helpful.

Very nice and detailed Only meet her once will see how the follow up visit goes

I have had a chronic diarrhea for years. I have talk or seen by several MD and friends, a recent endoscopies..( 5 times so far!!) was done but didn't care my problem , after endoscopies was done !( no prescriptions were given) This time my Dr M J-T is an interventional GI , listens to my medical problems, and resists not doing Endoscopy, find the diagnosis ! My diarrhea was gone for months, I did challenge by eating many foods that I did avoid previously! My wife and I thanks You very much!

Friendly staff, clean facility,short wait time!

The staff is excellent and very professional.

Dr. Joseph''s fellow said to me "Just so you know, Dr. Joseph is a stickler for diet and exercise", without having asked me about my exercise routine or lifestyle (beyond asking if I eat right before bed - I do not - or what foods I have cut out for acid reflux - fried food and pizza). I knew then that I was about to have an incredibly unpleasant and invalidating patient experience. Dr. Joseph saw that my BMI is in the obese range and drew immediate conclusions about what was wrong with me, what is the cause, and what the treatment should be. She did not ask me questions about my lifestyle or my mental health, and she did not show any interest in any diagnostic testing to see if there is a treatable cause for my acid reflux. She simply doubled my dose of [...], and when I told her that I would like to find a way to identify and treat the cause of my acid reflux, she said that there are surgeries available. There has to be a step between "throw more pills at the problem without finding out the root cause," and "sew my lower esophagus shut", but Dr. Joseph did not present that to me, nor did she take the time to explain why she thinks diagnostic testing is not indicated. I could tell she was simply sizing me up for non-compliance. She treated me based on her pre-conceived notion of what the number on the scale means about who I am and what my habits are. Until now I have had a very good experience with UT Physicians doctors treating me as a whole person, but this was a black mark.

Was a good experience.

Excellent care all around!

Job well done. Thanks to all involved.

The Dr. was very detailed in her explanation of my medical issues And presented a plan of action to Address those issues.

Dr. Was understanding about further treatment and my futureplans and movement.

I was not able to see the doctor because I was not notified I had to atleast have $100 upfront to assist the appointment. I left very worried because I actually had allot of concerns regarding my recent surgery
