I’ve been seeing Dr. Krishnaswami ever since I moved to the area a little over a year ago. She’s personable, professional and friendly. If you’re anxious like me, do not fret as her kindness and readiness to help puts you at ease. I didn’t wait very long before being seen. The office itself is nice. They have both a parking lot right in front of the building and a garage attached. I definitely recommend her if you’re looking for a PCP!

Outstanding
July 5, 2022Clarissa G.Verified patient
I made my appointment online with Zocdoc. I did the pre-checkin. I would say Zocdoc advises to fast. I didn't have to. They do no take blood there. They send you to a Quest. That is perfectly fine. Zocdoc needs to update that. They called me to confirm my appointment. Sent me my portal information via email and allowed me to check in again via text. They used all of my information and new my history before I even stepped in the door. Everyone was friendly and the office was clean. Overall, I had a wonderful experience. She even advised I can call with questions. she listened to all of my concerns and provided wonderful solutions to them.

Dr. Krishnaswami is a great listener and the appointment felt more like a conversation rather than examination, and that is a huge plus for me. She is very kind and personable and did not rush me at all, though I am sure she was very busy. Thank you!
