lied to my primary doctor. told him that I stopped my medicine. she couldn't find out what was wrong and kept giving me medications that were not working. she also said that I was lying about having seizures. 4 members of my family went to appointments with me and described them to her as they witnessed them. 3 other doctors wrote reports to her as I had them during their care and I was in a coma for a week at her home hospital and she never came to see me even though my family requested her to as I had a seizure so bad the ambulance was sent out which is why I had been in the coma. she needs to stop practicing!

Dr. Kandimala cared for my husband through the terrible journey of Dementia. She was a most caring physician and actually wept with me when he became so bad that he had to be in a facility. I would recommend her for her knowledge, her care and her interaction with her patient. She is the BEST!

This Dr is the worst DR. Ever! After having been referred to her because of stroke like symptoms and loss of speech she reviews my MRI and spent maybe 10 minutes at the most with me but says that it's scar tissue ! I found out that I have encephalomalacia but she didn't have the decency to tell me that!' She talked me down because I was writing said that I didn't have aphasia because I could write and said that my being unable to talk was all in my mind! So she suspects that I'm faking illnesses too get attention! She made me uncomfortable and made me cry and all but said that there was nothing she could do for me and that she didn't want to see me again unless nneeded! I have a referral to see her again but don't want to because she made me uncomfortable!

I went to her for a lot of numbness and motor skill problems. When I expressed that my right arm was numb for 4 days, she asked if I knew what numbness what bc im too young for that. I had symptoms of MS, so she did blood work, the blood work confirmed it, but she said that I'm a weird patient bc I'm "too young for MS" she decides to do a spinal tap in the office, after sticking my with the same needle 7 times, she could not draw and spinal fluid, then yelled at me that it's my fault she couldn't do the procedure. If you want to be dismissed and yelled at, she's the doctor for you.

Was having several issues finally got carpal tunnel test and was told it was negative and nothing was wrong with me and dismissed me. Immediately I got a second opinion and what do ya know "severe carpal tunnel in both hands"! Was not impressed AT ALL. Staff was friendly tho!

Always running late, doesn't talk with patient, just says yeah, hmm, okay. Don't expect anything out of her. She does not explain anything at all!

I am so pleased that Dr Kandemala is my neurologist. I have found her to be very caring and she always takes the time to be very thorough in her evaluation and questions. She is always willing to explain anything I don't understand. I had already started CPAP therapy before seeing her, but she recommended that we test my O2 saturation at night. Because of that the test showed that my oxygen saturation was dropping at night to the point of potential damage to organs. Thanks to her I am on oxygen supplementation at night and am no longer in danger. I highly recommend her.

After the first visit, I too thought she was caring and intelligent. However, the next couple of visits showed that she did NOT listen and jumped to conclusios. She was unsupportive and hasty in her decisions. Also, she failed to communicate professionally with me concerning several decisions that she made in regards to my health. Personally, I have been extremely disappointed and unfairly treated.

I've had a sleep issue for a number of years. With her persistence, we are on the right track.
