Dr Murthi listens and his professionalism is exceptional. He is extremely methodical in his profession. His recommendation of medicine works well and he does not jump to conclusions unless he is certain of the issues before he makes a recommendation. I had an excruciating back pain and he was very helpful to pinpoint the pain and I am recovering well so far. I highly recommend Dr Murthi.
