First visit was decent but horrible after that: visits are promptly cut at 10-15 minutes and nothing more than her writing a rx occurs. Just acts like she is listening but says nothing more helpful than common sense. Never returns messages and never even remembers what's she has me on, after 3 yrs! Don't waste ur time unless you already know what meds you want, she'll usually just put you on them.

10 years ago was the last time I saw Dr. Sundaram. Prior to that I was a patient of hers for about 8 years. Without her, I would not be alive today. I had depression, anxiety,suicidal ideations and sometimes a duel personality. I wanted to learn how to help my self and she taught me. To me, she was a teacher. I was willing to try to help myself for the rest of my life. She was the right doctor for me. I was on and off meds with her during the 8 years. The last time I saw her she told me good luck and I wouldn't have to see her again. Well, she was 100% correct. She taught me what she could and I learned to deal with life. I am not on any medications and have not been for the last 11 years. Sometimes it's our curcomstances in life that cause anxiety and depression. We have to learn to get through them and to deal with life. Like I said, I owe my life to her. I am happily married with 3 children. Thank you Dr. Sundarum from the bottom of my heart!!!! AJ

Doesn't listen to a word that is said, just "uhuh" you to death. Always has a sour puss on her face. Has no tact whatsoever and is very ignorant. Perhaps that's their culture in India. Needs to go home. She is very, very NOSEY! I've watched her stick her nose into others conversations. She is not in the field to help individuals. She has no heart.

By far the WORST doctor I've ever seen. She would never ask me how I was, would simply dish out prescriptions randomly. When I came off one medicine, I started hallucinating- it was an emergency- and she never called me back. Actually, she never answered ONE PHONE CALL in all the time I saw her. One time I waited an hour in her office because she "didn't see me." Somehow it was my fault for sitting in a specific chair because she didn't know I was there... even though there was a chart with her patients and appt. times. I begged her to put me back on my meds after I hallucinated and she refused- said I would be fine. I was not. Eventually I just left... best decision I ever made. This woman should not be a doctor, especially in such a critical field. I called her crying many times begging for help and she never called me back. My therapist also called her multiple times and according to her she "never got the voicemails"- all 1000000 of them.

This was my Mom's doctor and because of her incompetence she landed in a hospital with not much chance of ever being coherent again (might mention that she never even visited the hospital to see what was wrong). My Mom was prescribed the wrong medication, the Dr. was notified of this and then tried to prescribe something new over the phone without even seeing her!! Never returns phone calls ( it took me 3 calls to get her to phone in a prescription), her office is a mess and always overloaded with patients waiting for far too long. Luckily she had great care at the hospital, found a wonderful psychiatrist who actually knows what he's doing and has fully recovered. This could have been a truly tragic event. I would never go anywhere near this woman.

this dr should not be a dr...especially in her field. i have never seen such an uncaring person who is so unprofessional towards her patients as well as her staff...while waiting for an appointment i wittnessed her yell and use downgrading comments to her poor lady that works there.........she was also very uncaring when it came to our session all she cared about was swishing her hair off her face and her co pay i would not recommend her at all to anyone especially children and people that are sensitive
