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.

Changed codes after given preventive codes by his
I was given preventive codes from his staff for colonscopy, he changed them to diagnosis now I owe 2500. I'm on limited income. I'll have to delay my mitral Valve Prolaspe procedure to pay this bill. Shame on you for allowing your staff to take my choice away to wait on colonscopy by giving me preventive codes that pay 100%. Then changing them to diagnosis. Do the right thing and fix this.

Dr Sunkavalli is a wonderful doctor! I am sad that he is leaving Prisma but I am hoping that he stays in the area so I can continue under his care.

Does endoscopic surgery
Before Dr. Sunkavalli did the P. O. E. M. (PerOral Endoscopic Myotomy) procedure on me I couldn't swallow because I had achalasia type 3, which is awful. This is a condition where you can't swallow due to weakened swallowing muscles, and causes food to be aspirated into the lungs, causing pneumonia. Dr. Sunkavalli cured me, and I only had a sore throat for three days. I could eat soft foods normally on the second day, and on this fifth day I am out of almost all pain. Iced drinks and ice cream are enough to work now Dr. Sunkavalli is the only surgeon that can do endoscopic surgery in this state, and he does excellent work. You can tell excellent surgery because you are cured right away, and he did excellent work on me I am very thankful to God for showing me Dr. Sunkavalli because he gave me my life back from constant pain, and not being able to eat. Thank-you!

I have had 2 colonoscopies, swallowed the GI camera, & had an endoscopy since the 1st of the year. Even though I have had appointments to explain the results, I have never seen the Doctor. It was left to his PA to explain. The final time was to be a televised on a Monday @ a specified time. No call or follow-up. I have yet to hear from time(early Oct.)
