Dr. Ram was extremely warm and welcoming!
Verified patient
She is excellent and well trained. I wish that she had a better spread out schedule so that patients did not need to wait almost an hour and then be told she can only talk for a few minutes.
I can’t believe it’s been five years since I transferred my primary care from my pediatrician to Dr. Deepa Ramachandran. I can’t believe I haven’t written a review yet! To get the cheese out of the way, Dr. Ram really is the bomb. ;). Dr. Ram and her support staff made the transition in care seamless. Dr. Ram is thorough, and her yearly exams and blood panels have caught some critical health issues and changes. Because of them, I’ve improved my diet and started on mindfulness meditation/yoga, feeling more energized and balanced as a person. She always walks into the room happy and motivated to help and solve problems. Dr. Ram’s advice and calm, assuring manner has helped ease the growing pains of young adulthood. If there is a case where we need a second opinion, Dr. Ram has fantastic referrals, all as astute as she. Many members of my family now use her as a primary care doctor, and they are always satisfied with her practice. Other medical professionals share the office at Southbay Family Medicine including a convenient Universal Diagnostics Laboratory. Her kind support staff communicate well and help with any problem. Her office is paperless. Instead of filling out redundant forms every time you come in, you use one of her office’s tablets to check in. You can set up a secure online account, where you can check previous blood panels, access messages, etc. Dr. Ram runs a very efficient and effective practice. I’m grateful to have her as my primary care doctor. Here’s to another five years of good health and watching Dr. Ram’s adorable family grow!

I've had a few appointments with Dr. Ram and she is excellent! It's a small office, everyone is super nice & they treat you with lots of care. I like that they use technologies like a tablet with credit card swipe for the new patient paperwork or co-pay process. They also have a portal (it's a little clunky but still worth mentioning) for the patients. I love having Dr. Ram as my doctor. Her Western and Eastern approach to medicine is very refreshing.

Good Doctor!
Verified patient
After reading other reviews on Dr. Ram, I was very optimistic and I certainly was not disappointed. She listened to all my questions and concerns and I felt like here is a doctor that will help me. I look forward to being her patient.
Verified patient
She was very professional and made me feel comfortable from the second she walked through the door! I will definitely keep her as my primary physician!
Verified patient
Great doctor and staff! Everyone in the office was very friendly. Dr. Ram took the time to listen to all of my concerns and recommended a very thorough set of lab tests to attempt to diagnose the problem. The specialist I went to later was very impressed.
Verified patient
??Dr. Ram is the bomb.com. Friendly, professional, reassuring, extremely pregnant. She is amazing!! I'm very happy I picked her.
Verified patient
Very kind and energetic doctor! All of the professional staff seemed knowledgeable and warm. Looking forward to starting a great doc-patient relationship.
Verified patient
I have recommended 3 other coworkers to this office. They treated me like a person, not a number, and the doctor took the time to understand my lifestyle and recommend alternative methods for improved health, as opposed to writing me prescriptions. I really appreciate the level of professionalism here.
Time will tell
Dr. Ram was very friendly. She made me feel that my appointment was important to her. She is knowledgable and answered all my questions thoroughly.
She is the most wonderful doctor! Is thorough, kind and really listens! Her bedside manner is awesome! My family loves this amazing doctor!!
Verified patient
This was the best experience I've ever had with a physician of any kind. Super smart, responsive, and friendly. Yes, the wait was long, but I understand other patients had situations that demanded she spend longer than planned with them. Better that than spending less time than necessary!
Verified patient
After I put my gown on for my "Skin cancer screening" I fell asleep while waiting 30 minutes for her to come back in the room. She said she had an emergency, but I think she forgot. Other than that, she was nice and her nurses were very good.
Verified patient
She was thorough, professional and courteous.
She was very personable. I went in for a wellness visit because I'm in search of a new doctor. She and her lovely assistant Evie recorded all my information and were detailed in collecting my medical information. I already made a follow up appointment for full physical. I finally found an awesome doctor!!!
What a gem I have found in San Jose. If you are looking for a down to earth, smart, beautiful and caring doctor she is it. Not to mention a delightful staff. Thank you Judy for the warm welcome!
Verified patient
It went very well. It was a first time visit and I am looking fotward to our follow up appointment. I think it will be a good match for me.
Verified patient
The visit was super fast and smooth. I made my appointment on ZocDoc the night before at 11pm for a next day appointment- got in, filled out my form in under 2 minutes on a cool touch pad, sat down for another 2 minutes, and was brought to the back. I think the most impressive part is the lack of wait time. A nurse worked with me right when I was lead to the back, and my Dr. Ramachandran came in right after the nurse was done. I'm used to waiting for 20 more minutes in the back at other places I've been to so this was a much appreciated change of pace! The front desk receptionist, nurses, and Dr. Ramachandran were all full of smiles. I think I'll make this my go to from now on :) It's pretty difficult to find a place that makes me feel comfortable but this seems to be it!
Verified patient
Dr. Ramachandran and her staff were very corteous and professional. I'm Verry happy with their service. I will maintain a doctor/patient relationship with them.
