I think Dr. Krishna AJ and the rest of the PA's are great. Very understandable and will work with you untill your condition whichever may be you will be comfortable with the meds he gives you. It may take a few visit but once you and him or one of his PAs find the meds that woek best for you they will enough to make you feel very comfortable. You can talk to him about anything that may be bothering you. Overall I think Krishna and his staff are awesome and would recommend anyone I know to give him a visit. 5 STARS....

I had 2:30 appointment and arrived at 2:15 only to find that about 30 other people had a 2:30 appointment also. The office was a madhouse. There wasn't even anywhere to sit. I would have gotten better and faster treatment in an emercency room of a hospital. Unless you have nothing else to do with 5 or 6 hours of your day do not even bother with this doctor.

Extremely knowledgable physician in his field. Wonderfull and courteous staff. It may be busy office, but the wait is well worth it. All medical authorization for MRIs and medications are promtly obtained from insurance. The doctor is available 24/7 if you have any questions or concern. I would reccommend this doctor to anyone.

I completely agree with the previous comment. This doctor is not humane whatsoever and is only interested in obtaining money for each office visit, no matter how short they are.

I've visited this office 3 times and have seen Dr. Krishna for a total of about 7 minutes - not an exaggeration. He doesn't seem to want to listen to me whenever I visit and is always looking for the fastest way to end each visit. I would strongly advise against seeing him.
