Patient Reviews
Dec 23, 2023
I visit Dr. Rao and admire him greatly. His support staff varies greatly in quality and professionalism as does medical office staffing everywhere in the desert. He's responsive to patients who are well prepared with questions. If not, he's in and out in a few minutes. Patients must be able to assert themselves. Dr. Rao has performed 2 angioplasties on me at Desert Med Ctr. The hospital staff has undergone negative qualitative care changes in the CATH LAB since 2016. My most recent angio was far less convenient and informative. Their long standing pro care team has left.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
