Nov 2024To me, Dr. Lakshmi Chalavadi is an excellent doctor for Sr Citizens. She is warm, very knowledgeable, supportive, yet firm. She explains your condition, and if necessary arranges additional testing, prescribes medicines and offers suggestions for improving your health. Yet she appreciates that people often have ideas of their own as to their treatment and allows the patient to make suggestions and participate in planning their routines and treatment for their health and care. She thereby creates a team approach for managing the person's health and well being. I am pleased that Dr. Lakshmi Chalavadi is the doctor for both me and my husband.
