Patient Reviews
Jul 27, 2023
I just moved to Springfield and was concerned about finding an excellent endocrinologist. Thankfully I was able to get Dr. Rama Poola! She is highly skilled and on top of things. I see her regularly and she adjusts my meds and addresses any and call concerns I might have. We both discuss and agree upon what the next step is. I am receiving 5***** care, my numbers are significantly lower, my blood pressure is much better, and my all-around health has improved!! I am very thankful for her and her awesome staff!
