Patient Reviews
Oct 17, 2024
I've been lucky to have Dr. Karnam as my doctor for the last 3 years. From our first meeting, I was impressed with his attention, dedication, and willingness to educate me about my disease and explain the plan for care. He helps calm me about my health and is incredibly responsive, even responding to my questions via text while he was traveling in India. I cannot recommend him enough to any potential patients who wish to learn more about their disease and receive the best plan of care from a doctor who is willing to go the extra mile for you.
