Dr. Pandarinath is straight and to the point. If you don't have questions, he will not fill in the blanks for you. If you do your research before your visit and have questions prepared, you may find the visit valuable.

I was very impressed from the minute we walked in with the very quick check in on-line and being seen right away. We weren't left in the back room more than 5 minutes. The doctor and his assistant were so polite, informative and not in a rush. I recommend him to anyone needing orthropedic attention.

The doctor was great. I went to see him for pain in my knee that he confirmed was ITBS. He prescribed physical therapy and his front desk was able to give me a list of physical therapists in the area.

Dr. Pandarinath's office uses an interesting kiosk check-in system similar to what you see in airports. It struck me as unusual, but was quick and effective. He's very professional, nice, and I didn't feel rushed at all. I would definitely return.

Dr. Pandarinath is wonderful. He is a great listener and very thorough with both his exam and in asking the right questions to help diagnose my injury (plantar fasciitis) I would definitely return to his office if I have other sports related injuries. Highly recommended.
