I found Dr. Sivasanker personable and approachable. I was apprehensive as I didn't know what to expect but the doctor understood my explanations of how I've been feeling and my rationale behind those feelings. Dr. Sivasanker was attentive. He made me feel validated and hopeful.

I have no suggestions! Everything ran smoothly and efficiently, and I was treated with respect. Dr Sivasankar and I came to the same conclusion about what treatment would be best for me, which was reassuring.
