This Doctor is excellent. He took the time to really listen to my summary of health issues and ask questions before explaining why and how he had come to his conclusion. He addressed each of the issues and described how they were linked. He also provided comprehensive guidance for treatment. I left the appointment feeling hopeful and positive about the next steps.

Dr. Earley has always been wonderful at describing my complex issues in a manner which was readily discernible. He took the time to discuss, provide options, and tweak my regimen as required. I have never yet had a physician who takes the time to explain things to me, whether it's my concern, my prescriptions, etc. This issue I have is one of the most vexing concerns I've had to undergo- Dr. Earley has named it, treated it, modified it as it morphed, he is absolutely the best physician I've had.

Dr. Venkatesan was awesome! He was thorough while still being concise and to the point. He did a great job answering all of my questions, and he was personable and reassuring throughout the entire visit. I truly felt like I received a very thorough check. There were students working with him, and it was great to hear him explain things to them in greater detail. He was very positive, knowledgeable and encouraging, which made the experience even better. I would definitely recommend Dr. Venkatesan!
