Overall office and doctor are not friendly, even though I am a new in
this state and don’t know about the systems. Before visiting I asked some questions over the internet, but none response. Better to give an advice to bring like previous my medical record or etc. It might be help for first visit.

Dr. Kanagala is the most thorough, competent doctor I have ever met and her staff is always equally great. I refer her to everyone and they are always happy.

The visit was very good. She(the Dr.) was in time. The way she handles the problems makes me feel at age 88, that she is going to keep me fit for next decade. Cudos to her. God bless her.
