She always worked together with me to come up with a solution to provide best practices. So I would highly recommend Dr. Narasimhan to family, friends, and even some of my colleagues just because I've had a great experience with her. I've actually searched for her again over some years after she had moved her practices some years ago. And so I was so happy once I reconnected with her again because she helped me to manage my blood sugars very well. So that's all I have to say about Dr. Narasimhans and the

    I want to say that Dr. Narasimhan is one of the best doctors that I have ever seen, if not the best. She was amazing. She was above and beyond. She was beyond our wildest expectations. The other thing I want to say is getting an appointment in your office was a nightmare. A person has to be extremely person. I called probably three weeks I called probably three weeks in a row and I just, the answering service was horrible. And I mean, they were polite. They were always like, we'll have somebody get back to you to make an appointment, but nobody ever did that. So I would call the next week and I would, they would say, we'll get back to you to make an appointment, but nobody ever did that. Then that happened for like four weeks in a row until I finally got an appointment. If I wasn't persistent, I never would have, I never would have ?

    Love Dr Narasimhan. She is very knowledgeable and willing to have open dialogue about my condition. Only issue I've ever had is trying to reach her office by phone, not getting prompt call backs, and real difficulty getting scheduled. Unfortunately those are issues that can cause a patient to consider changing care to another provider.
