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.

So far we like her
My mom has a rare sarcoma. She helped us get an appt with Sloan and they concurred with her treatment plan. She was very sweet to my mom and her staff is very helpful. Only two appointments with her somfarSo we will see how it continues to go.

Great Doctor!
I have been seeing Dr. Seetha for over 10 years. I was treated first for anemia and now for reoccurring breast cancer. As a nurse I find Dr. Seetha and her staff to be very caring and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend Dr. Seetha if you need a wonderful Onocologist!

She’s the best! She’s all heart when it comes to healing her patients and to giving the best care to each. To know her is where the real healing begins. To trust her comes naturally. The team is awesome & uplifting! It’s not easy to do what she does as a Doctor. Respect is mutual. She honors the medical oath. She’s my doctor and more so a truly beautiful soul. Thanks Doc for your patience. And all the very best you’ve given me in 30+yrs mama!!!

Nice and caring. Made a appointment for my mother herself on spot. They give appt . pretty fast , also follow ups. Old school doctor. She draws blood on spot , you do not have to go to the lab and the following week you get the result. Knowledgeable too.

One of the nastiest Doctors I've ever met in my life! She is very nasty when it comes to her workers she speaks to them like they're beneath her or like they're children. I would not recommend her at all!

I've been seeing Dr.Seetha for 8+years ! She is one of my all time favorite doctor's! She is caring and understanding with all! I was recently in the hospital & she came up to visit me on her own time! The hospital never informed her of my admission , so I called her! As for the front desk , Mary is a pleasure to see all the time! Nicole is so gentle when she draws my blood! I highly recommend this office!

This doctor is nice but never uses any gloves for anything. Which I hate she takes your blood without gloves. Her back staff are beyond great BUT front staff wow she needs to change her attitude and learn how to pick up the phone. You will never be seen on time there is always 1 hour wait .

We called Dr. Murukutla's office and told her staff the reason was to get a referral for Oxygen therapy because of the pain she was having. Chronic and debilitating and strong enough where she is not comfortable sitting and so we came into the office with information about this therapy which has received good reviews. Dr. Murukutla refused to give us the referral and also refused to even look into it. I guess the pull of the drug companies is too strong.
