Very kind, well educated, straight forward doctor. Im shy, but he made me feel so comfortable with his down to earth personality. The staff was awesome as well. I would definitely recommend this doctor and I'm happy to have found him.

The doctor is great (sure, he's overly 'full of himself), but he's really caring about the wellbeing of his patients, he listens and we're sure he's a real good doctor

Verified patient
Before seeing the doctor, I was made to watch a mandatory propaganda video about him and how great he is and how he rubs noses with Georgia's elite. His bedside manner was condescending, both towards me, and the professionals I visited before him. His office staff apparently also does not accept ZocDoc. They "lost my appointment" even after confirming it the day before. I was forced to wait around in the small waiting room while this happened to three other people. The office staff was completely unprofessional. I wouldn't recommend this doctor to anyone, let alone let him handle anything important.
Doctor was clear and concise about treatment options, expectation of suggestive testing and was able to schedule me for a procedure to troubleshoot the issue for the next scheduled day.
I waited over an hour and a half before I got taken back. Dr was great and very knowledgeable but I felt very rushed. We were only in the room with him for about 10 minutes. Staff also. seemed very unprofessional.
Wasn't a very pleasant experience.
The doctor came in promptly and asked the right questions. He performed my exam, and provided me with the necessary steps and next appointment. I am very pleased with my visit.
Verified patient
He was professional and to the point, which I like. He asked alot of questions and gave alot of answers. And, he gave us options to pay becuase we were self pay, which was very reasonable.
Verified patient
I waited 2 hours before I was seen by this doctor. Once I was, I felt super rushed and that he wasn’t listening to me. He kept insisting on a colonoscopy versus discussing changes to my diet. The front desk admin also does vitals for the patients.. Wouldn’t recommend.
I guess it’s okay.
Verified patient
We waited for more than 1.5 hours even after having an appointment. Doctor did not listen to any of the symptoms and directly was recommending endoscopy. Please avoid this hospital.
Very straightforward and efficient
Really liked the attention I received
Verified patient
Very professional and thorough
**Highly Recommend** Where do I start? I felt like something was stuck in the back of my throat, and I had seen 4 doctors prior to seeing Dr Krishnan who told me it was nothing. When I explained my symptoms to Dr Krishnan, he recommended I undergo an “Upper Endoscopy” procedure and then worked on the price for me as well because I was self pay. I was Anxious about being put to sleep for the procedure but Nurse Erika was very comforting. It was soo fast I didn’t even realize the procedure was over and it was like waking up from a nap. All that worrying for nothing! Anyways, Dr Krishnan found an Erosion In my esophagus possibly from a Chicken Bone or Hard food which was also being irritated by my Sever Acid Reflux! He prescribed me some medicine and set a follow up appt for a week from now. Nurse Erika even called me this morning to check on me and make sure I was feeling well. I feel soo much better knowing what is going on with me now, as oppose to being told “It’s just in your head, there’s nothing in your throat” from previous doctors. Thank you Dr Krishnan, Nurse Erika and the Staff for an EXCELLENT experience.
