Patient Reviews
Apr 15, 2021
When I first visited Dr. Muraliray's office for a colorectal surgery, he patiently explained the whole procedure needed. From surgery to recovery, he took great care to make sure I feel comfortable., and the pain from the surgery was minimal. He is knowledgeable, skillful and personable. I am blessed to have Dr Muraliray as my surgeon.
