Dr. James Taterka, MD
I have developed long-term relationships with many patients, which I find especially rewarding. I approach each patient as a person rather than a case. I think one of the worst aspects of modern medical practice is its impersonal nature. Making a connection with the patient, listening to them, answering their questions and allaying their concerns is a critically important aspect of being a good physician. Without a personal connection and the patient’s trust, my medical expertise alone is not enough to make the patient well.

testimonials

My Experience with DR. VICTOR ARAYA
I am very pleased with everything at Hillmont G.I.! It was fast and easy to make an appointment, the check in time was fast and I waited about 5 minutes to be called back to a room. The staff there was professional and friendly, my doctor was professional but personable as well. He listened to everything I was concerned about. Checking out was a breeze too! I’m very happy with my entire visit and will be honored to be a forever patient there.

My Experience with DR. MARIE BAILEY
Dr. Bailey is professional, personable and an excellent physician. I fully trust her judgement and advice.

My Experience with DR. Robert Boynton
I saw Dr. Boyton today, he was very professional and a pleasure to meet. He reviewed my records and we talked about my progress with the new medication Victoria prescribed for me a few months ago. I really like this practice and will continue to use it.
