“Our wait time in the waiting room was not more than 10 minutes. I went to an exam room where all the vitals were checked, EKG, weight, etc. for about 15 more minutes. Dr. Gaddam came into the room within 10 minutes and we went over several details concerning pending upcoming test. Dr. Gaddam then escorted us to scheduling and I got the test scheduled with what to expect with the test. After everything was completed, we were in and out of the office in about 45 minutes. This sure does make going to see a doctor a much better experience. ”

Very disappointed in the answers, or more the lack there of, to my questions, if he would learn to listen and prepare to give an answer to a question that was not even asked. Will be looking for a more bedside manner dr.
