Personalized, Family-Centered Care

At Genesis Primary Family Medicine, we believe that quality healthcare begins with a genuine connection. Dr. Aalok Malankar, our board-certified family physician, is renowned in Reading for treating patients like family. “Dr. Malankar is like family. He listens, responds in a timely manner, and is supported by a staff that understands communication and listening are essential,” one long-time patient shares.

Expert Clinical Team You Can Trust

Our highly skilled clinical staff—comprising nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and dedicated nurses—brings a wealth of knowledge and empathy to every appointment. First-time visits with our nurse practitioner or physician assistant immediately set the tone for excellence: “She was attentive, caring and knowledgeable,” notes one patient, while another adds, “He was attentive, caring and knowledgeable.” This level of expertise translates into clear explanations, individualized treatment plans, and a genuine commitment to your wellbeing.

A Warm, Family-Like Atmosphere

Walking into our office feels more like visiting extended family than checking into a medical practice. From the moment you arrive at the check-in desk, our goal is to make you feel comfortable and valued. “First time going in and already got treated like family… the team is AMAZING,” reports a new patient, reflecting the heartfelt greetings, expert guidance, and supportive environment that define every in-office experience. Whether you’re here for an annual physical or a follow-up appointment, our staff is dedicated to ensuring that each visit is as stress-free and nurturing as possible.

Continuity of Care and Patient Loyalty

At Genesis Primary Family Medicine, long-term relationships are the cornerstone of exceptional healthcare. We proudly serve generations of families in Reading, PA—some of whom have been with us for over 30 years. “I think of the team as my extended family,” says one multi-decade patient, praising the stability and consistency of care. Our practice philosophy centers on building trust and understanding each patient’s health history, personal goals, and lifestyle, so that we can guide you through every stage of life with confidence and compassion.

Prioritizing Communication and Accessibility

We recognize that seamless communication is critical to your peace of mind. While our clinical team excels in face-to-face interactions, we also strive to make phone access and follow-up a breeze. We’re aware that some patients have found it challenging to schedule or modify appointments due to phone responsiveness and the lack of an online messaging portal. Your feedback is invaluable, and we are actively exploring solutions—such as enhanced phone support and secure patient messaging—to ensure your calls and inquiries are answered promptly.

Furthermore, many patients have praised our same-day callback service: “They call back whenever I leave a message the same day… I have no complaints.” We’re expanding this convenience to bridge any gaps in communication and keep you informed about test results, appointment updates, and treatment plans.

Continuous Improvement in Administrative Support

Behind every great medical office is an efficient, courteous administrative team. We acknowledge recent concerns raised about front desk professionalism and administrative processes—such as misplaced records or unreturned calls—and are taking concrete steps to enhance staff training, streamline record-keeping, and maintain consistent, helpful interactions. Our goal is to restore the trust and confidence you expect when you walk through our doors or reach out by phone.
