Doctor is fine. Gets into too much conversation outside of health. However, he is knowledgeable. My mine grief is with his staff. Never follows through prescriptions and other follow ups without several calls. I am leaving just for that reason.

He was very concerned and respectful. He is understanding and compassionate. Something you don't find in many doctors. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.

I am a patient of one of Dr. Kandasamy's colleagues. I have seen him twice and both time he was either overworked or extrememely irritable. He wrote me a script and omitted the quantity, which caused huge problems. Then on a follow-up, he blatantly bad-mouthed a specialist that I have been seeing for over 2 years, whom he has never worked with. Then he wrote me script for physical therapy wrong and argued with me after I gave it back to him 2 times to correct. He continued to say the he was a Nephrologist and he knew what he was talking about. Neither my current medical condition or my past medical condition had anything to due with my kidneys. Dr. Kandasamy was extremely rude and he refused to listen.
