Dr. Chintapalli was assigned to our case when we came through the emergency room. Upon meeting her, she treated us as if we had known her for years. She was so warm and genuine and made us feel so secure by treating us like we were more than a paycheck. Every time she made rounds, she always would take the time to be extremely thorough and answer any questions we may have.

I was not satisfied with her lack of attention to detail to my concerns. Follow up concerning test results was horrible, I had to call to get my results

I switched from another oncologist and have been extremely pleased. She is knowledgable, professional, polite, thorough and kind.

Had a horrible experience. Cancer itself is a tough thing to deal with but to have a lousy doctor who is more interested in large patient volume, than taking the time to explain anything to the patient is NOT worth seeing. I did not get the care that I desired from Dr. Chintalli - to get optimal care, I would recommend going to WILLIS KNIGHTON.
