My care provider answered my questions and explained everything to me so that I was able to comprehend everything.

I like seeing Dr. Chandran because she always takes the time to explain things and answer all my questions. I take my dad to see her for his kidney transplant. Sometimes she has to spend extra time with my dad because he is hard of hearing and getting forgetful but she is always kind.

Dr Sindhu Chandran is a very kind and excellent nephrologist. She gives the right advice on how to take my medications and how to cope with my complex health problems. I would strongly recommend her to other patients.

She is caring and takes time to explain things. I always ask for her when I go to the clinic.

May be good with research but not with people. Talked at me standing behind my back. Had no idea what she said. Never even faced me. In and out of room so fast, also talks very fast. No chance to even ask a question.
