One of the most compassionate, caring, dedicated, intelligent, diligent and impassioned physicians' I have ever met. And I was raised by one physicians and can name at a hand's count more I would call close friends, let alone all of the random colleagues, bosses, students, etc., I have met through them; so I have a good knowledge and experience with these noble men and women. Many Doctors will have strengths and weaknesses like anyone else. While all of them are obviously intelligent and hard working or they would never have been able to earn their degrees', like most men and women, they will have parts of their profession that they excel at and parts they either struggle with or simply don't do very well. With a physician, this can be a potentially dangerous issue, if the physician happens to be lacking in the knowledge or confidence departments. But even a physician who is rather (or even very) cold, impersonal, overly "clinical" with their language, inaccessible, unfriendly, rushed, too slow, always late, etc. They are still humans, after all, even if some think they're God. But Dr. Ravichandra is one of the few exceptional physicians alive today. He cares more about his patients, their well-being and their lives. He goes so far above and beyond to take care of all of his patients, especially his elderly, housebound, disabled patients, who may struggle getting to his office or understanding his technology. He's extremely warm, often funny, charming, extremely thorough and honest, compassionate, kind, incredibly knowledgeable and to top it off, has personally created his own one-of-a-kind medical records system that has more information (and even more room for much more complex ailments than mine) than any chart could include without being as thick as a medical textbook. And YOU CAN ACCESS YOUR RECORDS ON IT ANYTIME YOU WANT ON THE INTERNET! This doctor, this man, is one of the special ones. He's the kind of Doctor who will never turn his back on you, will always tell you what he knows to be best for your well-being and will work with you if what he originally suggests isn't. He's accommodating, but not dishonest, he won't lie to you just so you can feel justified in not doing something beneficial or doing something harmful. I know that this review is long, and I honestly could continue and go on, but this Doctor is absolutely superb. I can't recommend him more. If you have an opportunity to see him when you need to see an internist, take it. He won't let you down.

He is good and has great experience
Nice, but scheduling is a big issue. Many times, he is not in the office and you should be willing to wait at least an hour before he sees you (so far in my experience). Very into ultrasounding the heart without really explaining why.
Very personable and professional.
One of the finest, most capable, caring, thurough, compassionate and truly dedicated in NYC if not USA. I wouldnt just recommend him; I would insist upon him.
