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.

uterine prolapse
I had a problem called uterine prolapse, which I thought was common for moms after giving birth because my mom experienced it too. I got surgery with Dr. Savitha Krishan, who is experienced, skilled, and explained everything well. I had some complications with the first surgery because of pre-cancerous cells, so I needed a second surgery. Thankfully, the second surgery showed no cancer. I'm grateful to Dr. Krishan for helping me and easing my fears with her knowledge and expertise.

I believe Dr. Krishnan possibly saved my life!!! Initially my quality of life was extremely effected by my urinary incontinence. Dr. Krishnan preformed a sling surgery, and my life changed for the better ... no more leakage & extremely fast recovery. At the one year followup appointment, she referred me for an ultrasound of my pelvic area. I later found out she suspected I had a cyst, possibly ovarian or fallopian tube. She was right, and when confirmed, referred me to Dr. Pisani (an excellent gyn oncologist) in Mt. View. Dr. Pisani performed a robotic hysterectomy. The cyst was very large, cancerous, and labeled as Stage I. I understand that it is extremely rare for an ovarian cyst to be found at Stage 1 ... normally they are identified as Stage III or Stage IV when found. After surgery I had chemotherapy. All my bloodwork and scans since have been excellent. This is why I believe Dr. Krishnan possibly saved my life by finding the cyst early.

Dr Krishnan went out of her way to answer all of my questions. My surgery and post-op were as she had explained - no surprises. She has a great bedside manner. I highly recommend her.

After a botched hysterectomy, and three follow up corrective surgeries (none of which helped) I finally found Dr Krishnan. She is amazing. I cried when she said, "I can help you." I believed her and her surgery was a success (after many years of my suffering). I could not say enough about her skills and professional yet personal attitude towards her patients.

Dr. Krishnan is very clear about procedures and possibilities. She has incredibly upbeat attitude. She works quickly but listens intently to questions and answers them clearly. She is up-to-date on the literature and procedures about the procedures she uses.
