Patient Reviews
Sep 17, 2023
I've been seeing Dr Rao for a couple years. I trust him. He's easy talk with, answers questions, he listens. His front office is a little funky. They do intake and outtake at the same front window which slows things down and can lead to errors in payment. That's my only criticism.
