Patient Reviews
Jul 22, 2022
My college-bound child had a scary ER visit on the eve of starting freshman year across the country, owing to a bout of colitis, an upsetting diagnosis as it can be a precursor to Crohn's. Dr. Sivananthan was the doctor on call at Barnabas, and we went to his private practice for followup. He is one of the most terrific doctors I've encountered as a parent or patient. He was clearly extremely knowledgeable (his residency was at a top NYC hospital) but also uncommonly personable, warm and patient. He took the time to explain every aspect of my child's diagnosis, was upfront about what we knew and still don't know, and helped us weigh how aggressively we should pursue additional treatment, including advising on diet for the immediate future. We never felt rushed--he provided all the info we needed to make an informed decision--and promised to be there if new symptoms arose or my child's circumstances changed. Was so grateful! Dr. S is the best!
