In regards, to Dr Velamakanni, I have great respect for her. She definitely knows who I am when she walks in the treatment room and is always fully aware of my medical conditions that extend beyond cardiology. She always speaks slowly and clearly and never seems bothered by my questions. I know she is always busy yet I never feel rushed and I like as she leaves the room she often gives me one last opportunity to ask a question. I also, like that she holds me accountable if I don't follow her instructions. Dr Velamakanni once told me "you have only one heart .
