Hi. Dr. Seethapathy was excellent. I was invited and the initial person took my blood pressure, weight, on time. I was seen by Seethapathy. He explained my blood test, and explained what is important, how I am doing, and suggested follow- up, gave me a follow- up appointment. I don't want to be seen immediately.

Whole staff was extremely professional, helpful, kind, insured I felt cared for and valued as a patient from check in to follow through at checking out.
He is always professional. He's always very helpful with all the questions that I have for him. Always very courteous. I think he is one of the best.
I am thankful for his following up with me when I reached out about my blood work results.
I came in with all my tests downloaded to review with Dr. Seethapathy and have my questions re them answered. He was most patient describing what effect the numbers have on my health. He is always so honest and calming.
Simply wonderful
Gave good explanations. Prompt results a few hours later
Dr. Seethapathy is one of the greatest, smartest renal care doctors my husband has ever seen. He is caring, he's intelligent, medical. I met him in critical ICU during COVID. My husband would not be alive today without him. Thank you.
Professional and informative
This doctor, he worked it out nicely. He asked questions, I answered. We spoke, he checked, and then, so he did some blood, drawn blood, and I get the results. But he's an excellent doctor.
