Patient Reviews
Apr 09, 2024
She was my children’s doctor. She saved my first child which was a boy, life. She is very knowledgeable and caring and I met her when I was 16 years old. I’m 60 years old now but when I had my last child at 40 she was his doctor until I moved. My daughter had sickle cell, she took wonderful care of her, but then my daughter turned 18 and had to move on worst day she lived to be 20 years old and I always had a problem with the doctors she had. So I say all this to say this doctor Dr. Rao is the best and I love her and thank her for all she has done.
