I have been Dr Nerella's patient for more than 4 years. I am particular about my doctors. If they don't take the time to listen to me and to thoroughly explain their recommendations for me, I look for someone else who will. That is one reason I stay with Dr Nerella. He is compassionate, skilled, very highly thought of in the local medical community, and I have no doubt he has my best interests in mind at all times. He takes the time to explain things thoroughly to me and makes sure my questions are answered. He suffered from polio as a child and chose to turn that medical hardship into a career of helping others. I have great respect for Dr Nerella.

I was relieved and satisfied with my visit Dr Nerella was extremely inquisitive ...looking over my chart ..discussing my diagnosis. He ordered several tests that I feel will really help to uncover what's going on with my symptoms. He is an extremely conscientious doctor, very polite easy to speak with and interested in what you have to say. THAT'S why I gave him a five-star rating! he is an excellent physician.
