Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

As a Disabled Veteran, Dr Koduru listens to me and is treating me for several issues. He is one of the best and I recommend him.

Dr. Koduru is not the most personable doctor but he's straight to the point, good at diagnosing. He helped me finally get correctly diagnosed after years of being treated for the wrong issues and found a medication regime that worked really well for me. I would recommend him on his results. I will say the only real complaint I had was the office wait. It always took 1-2 hours waiting so I'd bring my computer to stay busy. Other than that I would definitely recommend.

Dr. Koduru is wonderful!! However, the billing dept is in serious need of a total overhaul. I have had more issues with this one office since the beginning of seeing Dr. Koduru than my total lifetime of seeing doctors. The only reason I don't switch to another practice is Dr. Koduru, but as soon as he retires, I'm out of there. Totally incompetent and unaccountable with the billing of the practice.

Poor English, and doesn't spend enough time with patient. Never gets the prescription correct, and gives you the third degree. Basically comes down to a language barrier, and seems like he wants to hurry up with the patient so he can go home.

He is always late coming to the office, so don't make a morning appointment and even in the afternoon he is behind and you wait at least 45-1 to be seen. He doesn't keep track of what he prescribes and the quantity and directions change frequently because he doesn't keep updated notes. He is hard to understand and only spends a couple minutes with patients barely asking questions. When concerns are raised about side effects of medication he will argue with the patient.
