About Dr. Latha Velusamy

As a child, whenever I saw my doctor, I felt a sense of comfort knowing everything would be alright. I resolved to become a doctor myself to provide that same comfort to others. I am grateful to make a positive impact in my patients' lives. Getting to know my patients and their families and being there to offer comfort and care is what I feel most fortunate about. My philosophy of care centers on effective communication with both patients and the other physicians involved in their care. I make sure to spend enough time explaining things in a way that patients can understand and follow instructions. I earned my Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery from Coimbatore Medical College. I completed my Residency in Internal Medicine and Fellowship in Nephrology at Wayne State University, Detroit Medical Center. This training has equipped me to provide comprehensive and compassionate care to my patients.
