Appointment went very well. Dr ran many tests to ensure I was healthy enough to take weight loss drug.
I don't like Srinivas Ravanam, MD, his bedside manor stinks, but props to the Nurse practitioner i saw today. She really makes the 7 hills heath group shine. Bravo!!

Verified patient
Dr. Ravanam is a great doctor!!!!!
Was not very clean for a doctors office and was very dark. The doctor came in for about 15 seconds and was quite rude. Would not return to this office
I think he purposely does extra tests which are un needed to bill your insurance company. I went in for back problems and he wanted blood and urine samples before he would prescribe any medication. He also did not give me medication that works and is not even close to what the emergency room gave me a few days prior which was not helping me. I asked for more powerful meds and he gave me Tramadol when I was on Tylenol 3's, Flexeril, and Naproxin. I would advise anyone that has this doctor in mind to find someone else! I'm reporting him to Medicaid for fraud and doing extra tests that were not needed for my injury. He is a POS!
Verified patient
The doctor was cold and uncaring. First thing he said to me was that I could only go over one issue on each visit. He was obviously unaware that I tried to schedule two appointments originally and it was his staff that told me they could take care of Everthing in one. After that he asked me what I had been taking for my psoriasis. I told him two different creams and that they did not work. We then went over my heartburn. Not in detail he just asked if I had heartburn. He punched a few things in the computer and asked me what pharmacy I used. He then told me he was prescribing medicine for the psoriasis and heartburn. He was trying to get up to leave when I asked him what he had prescribed me for heartburn. He said the prescription version of zantac. Which I Then informed him that it doesn't react well with me and I would prefer omeprozole. He then told me it was out of his hands and thats what he had to prescribe. He walked out of the room. He never went over what he prescribed for the psoriasis. I then left after getting blood drawn. Once in the car I called my pharmacy to find out he had prescribed me the same two creams I was on that I told him did not work. I find it funny that the only real details we went over about my needs and medical history were completely ignored. This doctor is the worst I have ever seen. I truy hope people see this about him and let him see what is really needed to be a medical professional. Wake up sir and understand and then do your job. If you don't care about people you should have gotten into a field of medicine that requires no contact with people and their needs. On a side note his staff was very helpful and professional.

Always patient, kind and efficient. Listens.

I made an appointment for a pap yet they don't them on the weekends which I was never made aware of until I got there. I was told at 28 I can't start taking b12 shots and they didn't have any flu shots. I asked for a referral for a gyno and tells me to find one myself. Also says he noticed that I haven't lost any weight.It was a complete waste of my time. Not impressed. Nice staff though.
The Doctor is rude and has a poor bedside manner. I was trying to explain to him why I wanted to try a new medication, and before I could finish he cut me off, and told me to get to the point. I told him I wanted to try it. He did give it to me, but was very rude about it. It was very unprofessional. If it wasn't for the fact he is the only medicaid doctor that will prescribe me my medication I've been taking for 10 years, I would stop going. This isn't the first time he's been rude to me. The nurse practitioner that is there is much better, and more deserving to be a doctor. Nobody should be talked to like that by a Dr. who is supposed to be there to help you. Also even though it was recommended by another doctor he refused to refill temporary pain medication for me until my condition clears up. I am very disappointed, and am looking for another doctor.
This doctor really listened to me after no one else would. He let me cry in his office about my problems untill I had let it all out. He was so respectful and caring. The staff was just as caring and attentive. I have nothing bad to say about this doctors office and look forward to my check up visit in a week.
Verified patient
The doctors and staff are great people!
Verified patient
Very knowledgeable and professional.
Verified patient
Everything was great, I did have a appointment at 10:30 the doctor did not see Me until 12:30 that was very fusterating but he was great
Verified patient
Disregarded what my appointment was meant for, left with the same problems and nothing resolved and no answers. Was not very friendly or compassionate. Didn't allow for the patient to explain.
Cynthia was more than compassionate, she's smart and took her time dealing with the proper routes to take so I'd get well sooner. I love Dr. Rav, Aaron is fantastic as well. Thank you for always helping me :) I'll see you all next week.
I don't like the fact I need to go in every month for a drug test to obtain my RX. However I can understand based on today's society but still it's a pain in ###
Verified patient
First time at this office and with this Dr..the Dr was professional interested in my health concerns..the nursing staff and secretary were both excellent and very polite..don't be fooled by the name clinic..this is an actual Dr's office so it's more personable which is what I've been looking for!!
Dr. Ravanam is a very good doctor he has treated my son, husband and myself on many occasions. He is great with kids. The doctor is easy to talk, I like having the pharmacy in the same building very convenient. Donna

Dr. Ravanam was very nice! He knew what he was talking about. I was very nervous getting blood work done and he reassured me, and let the nurses know. The nurse was also phenomenal and very sweet! I appreciated the hospitality.
