I was SO fortunate to meet Dr. Harms at an Urgent Care office in Irvine last weekend. He is such a great listener, knows his craft inside and out, and SAVED the day with my year-long plugged ear! Dr. Harms prescribed some meds, and after the last pill - a miracle happened!My issue resolved itself just like he said it would. I am eternally grateful for his warm, calm, caring, friendly demeanor and finally solving my concern. Sending a HUGE hug for making my life better!

Such a great and endearing doctorDr. Harms is by far my favorite doctor I’ve had (as an adult). Wish I started seeing him years ago. He is so down to earth, genuine and really listens to what you have to say. I’ve never once felt like he was rushing through our appointments. He just has this vibe to him that makes you feel at ease, almost like you are hanging out with a buddy. I’m glad I chose him as my Primary and hope he stays at this LB location for many years to come.

Dr Harms is very patient, great listener and very experienced in his field. Based on his experience he is able to quickly identify anything medical and makes the best recommendations. My health checked out clear on my visit and it made it very comforting for me to know I can trust a doctor that cares and is great at his profession. And based on my needs he has been very patient and understanding.
