Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

DR CHOOSES NOT TO ACCEPT AN HMO POLICY
I switched my insurance to an HMO policy because I am on Medicaid and Medicare and the HMO policy gets more benefits for my healthy groceries and I was told that Dr Kancharla will not accept an HMO policy even though on UHC's website it says she accepts the policy. The secretary told me that the doctor has the option to not accept an HMO policy. This is very upsetting to think a doctor will choose not to accept an HMO policy that will help their patients get an extra 60 dollars a month for their groceries. I only draw 800 a month the way it is and that extra money could go a long way. Straight up greed and I am ashamed of Dr. Kancharla as a person.

Awesome pain MGMT doc
I have MS, Fibromyalgia, & Occipital Neuralgia. As a result I deal with daily chronic pain that has a significant impact on my life. Dr Kancharla is very mehodical. She asks very good questions & most importantly, knows how to treat pain. My Occipital Neuralgia was causing agonizing headaches. Dr Kancharla did a nerve ablation on my left Occipital nerve and I've been pain free from that issue for 3 years. She is also treating my other pain issues with great affect. Finding a good pain MGMT doc in East Texas is a real challenge, but I wouldn't have anyone else treat my pain.

Dr. Kancharla is very professional and explains everything about my illness and treatment options well. She seems very smart and confident in herself, but listens to me and my problems and then gives me her very best advice. She is very caring, compassionate, soft spoken and sweet. I like going to see her very much and would recommend her to my family and friends.
