Patient Reviews
Jan 16, 2025
I have been seeing Dr gunapooti for a couple years now. I have gotten nothing but respect and kindness from everyone in the office, including Dr gunapooti and all of his staff. Dr gunapooti is very kind and easy to talk to. He listens and considers my needs and concerns. Anytime I need to call to change an appointment or with a question, the office staff has always been very kind and accommodating. Ive tried a couple other pain management doctors before finding Dr gunapooti. They were always intimidating and unwilling to listen to my concerns. Dr gunapooti and his staff take very good care of me. . I love this doctor and this practice.
