Dr Sai Varanasi is the most kind and compassionate doctor. She will make you feel comfortable and will answer every question you can think of. She is a doctor that will be by your side every step of your journey. I couldn’t have gotten through my breast cancer with her. She is an amazing doctor.

Dr Varanasi headed the team that treated my early stage breast cancer. She explained things compassionately and thoroughly. My scars are practically nonexistent - the tech who did my radiation simulation commented on how nice they looked!

Dr. Varanasi was highly recommended by my primary physician and gastroenterologist as being the best surgeon in the area. This was echoed by the nursing staff who all had high praise for her positive attitude, professionalism, and dedication to the patients needs, as well as her expertise.

I would not recommend this doctor to anyone who wants more then a 3 minute exam, no follow up care, and unable to prescribe the correct amount of antibiotics for an infection for 8 days. As for follow up care, I couldn't say. I left without letting this doctor cut into my body and went to a doctor I trust.
