Aymel John Tarrar, MD

Dr. Tarrar was an excellent physician! He was very attentive, listened to you and went above and beyond than any other Mercy Physician I have seen! Very hard now a days to find a Dr. Like Dr. Tarrar. Although, he recently has left Mercy Medical Group, I’m almost 100% positive because he wasn’t allowed to practice medicine in the way he knows is right. He, I’m sure had to deal with the internal Politics at Mercy and the Mercy System doesn’t like physicians to order necessary studies to get their patients well. Which in the long run will and does cost the Mercy System more $$$. The Mercy System dictates to the physician and can’t handle a REAL Physican who is compassionate any caring. It costs Mercy to much $$$$ and they just don’t like that at all. Dignity Health is promoting «hellohumankindness» which is a bunch of BS. Mercy should promote «letssaveevery$$$wecan»!!! The Mercy System is all about Politics and not patient care. Dr. Tarrar on the other hand is a RARE hard to find, caring, physician.

My husband went in 4 times for the same issue and after hundreds spent on co-​pays and tests we still have no answers at all. We are going to be seeing a new physician.

Horrible Dr. I am actually considering switching out of mercy medical group because of how I have felt so neglected by Dr. Tarrar as a patient. He doesnt listen to my true needs an concerns at the time of my visits. He has actually refused to get me in for appointments or see me for things that I have to go be treated at the emergency room for. He will tell me one thing during the visits and then when I call the office he has his call staff tell me another. He has not lived up to the new slogan that Dignity health is trying to promote «hello humankindness».Everytime I call his office the staff there is very unprofessional. When I call and ask for an appointment for a same day visit on a friday I won’t get a call back until Monday. He has dropped the ball with my medications, labs, and my back pain for months! THE only nice thing I have to say about this office is his medical assistant Gail she’s fantastic and has always treated me with respect and kindness. Everyone else makes me feel like I am bothering them when I call. Not the way a patient wanta to feel when they call there doctor’s office.
