Patient Reviews
Sep 08, 2024
I had hernia surgery at age 79 with Dr. Kolachalam. He was very personable and explained the procedure in detail. I felt very comfortable with his expertise and bedside manner. My recovery is going as outlined by Dr. K and I would not hesitate to refer him or use his surgical expertise in the future. His office staff was very warm and accommodating. Great experience!
