Dr. Santhosh is an exceptional doctor. She is extremely knowledgeable and is very systematic in her diagnosis. I really appreciate how she listens with full attention when I try to explain my symptoms - never rushing me, I'm asking for clarification when needed. Then when she explains her diagnosis, she is very clear, detailed, not condescending. I really appreciate feeling like a living patient whom she is helping rather than a chore to be processed. Dr. Santhosh is brilliant!
