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.

Hostile
This Dr. Chandiramani was very rude and hostile during my visit. He had a very angry, aggressive attitude the entire time. I’ll never go back to him again, and would not recommend anyone to go to him.

Dr "C" as he is affectionately known- is one of the best physicians of any kind I've ever been to. He is friendly, thorough, professional and incredibly knowledgeable. He put my fears of a cardiac catheterization to rest. The procedure was painless and his demeanor is so reasuring while he's performing it. He actually calls you back personally if you call the office. I wish all doctors were like him!

We have been with Dr. Chandiramani since my husband's first heart attack and open heart surgery in 1994. He is an amazing Doctor along with having compassion for his patients. He has become part of our family.

Had appointment with Dr. Chandiramani yesterday (1/25/16) at 2:00 pm. The waiting room was packed. After waiting for 2 1/2 hrs, the receptionist gave me some paperwork to fill out, they had a new system in placed. Why did she not give them to me when I arrived?? I was very upset at this point & left without seeing the doctor. It took over an hour to see the rep from St. Jude to check my pacemaker & defibrillator, she said it was because of the new system. Unhappy with this visit.
