“What stood out was the ability of the doctor to listen carefully, observe and digest my responses, show concern for a good outcome, understand what I prefer in terms of care to achieve the best outcome for my issue. The recommendations for test to achieve a resolution to my issue were based on the knowledge of the doctor seen and again my values and beliefs. ”

October 25, 2022Ramesh K.Verified patient
The consultation seemed ok. I read the doctor's notes in my patient portal. No problem.
However the scheduler ""Sara'' was out to lunch & I was told she would call that day. She didn't. I called 10 am the next day & nothing. I called back @ 3:45 pm, got voicemail & left a message for her stating the consultation does me no good if you don't call to schedule. It's 10:39 am on Monday & nothing. I'm moving on. I have symptoms.

Dr. Velpari is a great doctor! There is virtually no wait with an appointment, and there was no wait in the actual room. He came right in and started asking questions about my health. He is very caring and good at explaining procedures to the non-medical minds. Would HIGHLY recommend him!
