Dr. Verghese dismissed my concerns as a new mother and was very condescending. She ignored my calls when my baby was sick throwing up. Another time, when I called around 6PM on a weekday, she called back an hour later and was rude and annoyed. I do not like this doctor and am considering switching practices due in large part to her behavior.

I have had her as my sons doctor day one when he was born. I live in Indiana and I travel to her because she is the best. Shes very accurate in diagnosis very kind and nice she makes me feel at ease. Spends time with me and my child to make sure hes doing fine. I have to adult children and they have never had a doctor who cared so much. I love her because she takes care and also cares for her patients.

Dr. Verghese is an excellent doctor who really cares for each of her patients as if they are her own children. She has been the doctor for both of my children since their birth. She is very understanding of our vegan diet and has been supportive of out choices but made sure our children were thriving on the diet. She is no non-sense and will tell you her honest opinion. My children love her and so do my husband and I!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Dr. Verghese. She is brilliant and caring. She treats parents and children with respect. It is truly wonderful to have a doctor that you can trust absolutely. Even though we moved 35 miles away from her nearest practice, we will continue to see her. Thank you Dr. Verghese!
