Doctor is always very interested in my well being and informing me of ways to improve my health. Dr. always explained test results with me. her bedside manner with me was always caring & at the same time professional. I woulld recommend her to anyone & they would be happy I did. Dr. always spent all the time I needed on my visit Anyone would be luckey to have her as their doctor.

I have been with this doctor for a while, although I probably should have switched sooner. My recent visit was enough to convince me to finally change doctors. She did not listen to my complaints adequately. She did not show a lot of empathy. Her comments were a little demeaning. She makes me so uncomfortable in the way she treats me whenever I go to see her that I started not wanting to even see her, when I had health issues, as a doctor anymore and I ask for any other doctors available when making an appointment. I do not trust her. I would not recommend anyone to see this doctor.

I would definitely recommend Dr. Chiplunkar to others. She takes her time and goes over your history. She listens to your concerns and works with your to form a action plan to correct something. She doesn't tell you what you want to hear; she is very honest and will get on your case about your health (which I love).

Argumentative,abrupt,wild crazy eyes.I think she as a chemical imbalance. She spent more time demeaning me than trying to help me.WILL NEVER GO BACK TO HER NOR THE MEDICAL FACILITY SHE WORKS AT.
