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.

Busy Office
Dr. Krishnan is a competent physician with a pleasant bedside manner. His office did not return my calls (multiple calls over 3 days) after my MIL experienced issues when he stopped a medication. I had to take her to the ER to get the medication he stopped (and we had at home) restarted. We transferred care to another provider to avoid this issue in the future. I do believe Dr. Krishnan is a good doctor. His office is extremely busy and I think he may be overscheduled.

Get rid of the notebook and respond to the patient
Mother has CHF and Hyponatremia, she gets meds adjusted and within a few days she goes to the ER because doctor doesn’t call back when we call. Need to find a more cardiologist and office that cares about the patient and not filling on a computer form.

Dr. Krishnan has cared for me since my heart attack in Dec. 2011. I trust him completely and want no other cardiologist. A few years after that I had some very serious concerns, and Dr. Krishnan went to extensive efforts to help me better understand my cardio concerns. He's SUPER!

When it comes to working on my heart, I would not allow anyone but Dr. Krishnan to do so. If it was not for his proactive work ethics I would not be here today. He is very thorough and extremely proficient. He listens to his patients and does a great job providing treatment plans. I would gladly drive 2 hours to let this man treat me.
