I don't like going to doctor visits ever...usually feels like doctors just want to collect on insurance claims and spend least amount of time with you possible. That was definitely NOT the case with Ramani Rao NP. She did not rush through any part of the appointment, answered all my questions, and was genuinely concerned with my expectations in seeking a new primary physician. Looking forward to future visits here!

As a woman of color I had a very hard time finding someone who would listen and be attentive. I finally found a healthcare professional outside of my OB/GYN that listens to me.
Thank you Nurse Practitioner Ramini Rao!
