Patient Reviews
Oct 11, 2024
I have never felt as heard and cared for by a doctor as Dr. Sundaram. I did wait about 15 minutes past my appointment time to see him, but once I met him it was clear why. He takes the time to make sure you understand everything, and have all questions answered. His concern is for the patient, not administrative quotas. I wish every doctor I saw was like him.
