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.

Condescending!
Only saw her 3 times. Agree with other reviewers that she is rude and condescending. Happy to have found another neurologist. No need to be treated with disrespect. Find another neurologist.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Krishnamurthy?
While Dr. Krishnamurthy seemed very knowledgeable, she was rude and condescending. She spoke to me as though I was unintelligent, snapped at me when I was unsure how to answer a question, and seemed to be purposely trying to humiliate the medical student who was present for my appointment. It was very awkward and the whole experience left me feeling terrible. I was told there would be follow-up communication after my visit, which never happened-- though I was relieved because I dreaded interacting with this doctor again. I've since gone to another neurologist for a second opinion and had a much more supportive experience.
