I really like that she does everything herself. She takes your vitals, she takes your blood, etc. All that stuff is done by her in her office so she really gets to know her patient and it saves a lot of time running around getting blood drawn, etc. She remembers her patients and really tries to help. She is smart and she has a good bedside manner. The only negatives are sometimes I have a long wait. Also, I'm a little confused at times when she gives me referrals. Otherwise, I'm happy with her.

You call to make an appointment and nobody understands what that means. There is nobody working there. I went in for a visit and waited 20minutes until someone walked by the front and ignored me. The doctor doesn't take her time she just says yea and okay then writes the wrong prescription. Worst Doctor I've ever been to. The doctor was too busy to see anyone when I had my appointment that I had to wait.

I moved over 30 minutes away but will not switch drs. She is really good! I never write reviews but I'm so happy with this dr so I did. I never have a wait and her diagnosis have been accurate.

Dr Chandrasekaran is very attentive and helpful. Her medical knowledge is excellent and she is confident as well. She gets back with test results immediately. It is easy to get in touch with her and one does not have to wait on the phone for hours to communicate with her as it is with most doctors, I would highly recommend her as a Primary care physician.

I went for the first time for a routine check up. My appt was for 11 AM. I did blood work and a urinalysis and was still out at 11:20! This was the best experience ever.

Because Dr. Chandrasekaran was very detailed and attentive, I would not have been able to get proper care. She is very sharp and personable. I'm a 33 year old male that does not mind going to a female physician. Especially after going to a male physician and was totally ignored.
