Dr. Paddu has been wonderful to work with. I've seen several providers at this clinic and she has been the best (with Maddie a close second). I hated to hear that her internship will be over soon, and hope to see her back at some point.

It felt a bit generic. I know this is a very busy clinic, but I was given advice that wasn't very personalized. Eat less, move more - pretty much the same info you can you read online. I wasn't aware I had to set up the nutritionist and Shared Medical Appt myself. Would love if that was sent in my MyHealth messages like the Sleep Study appt was. And the exercise component was barely discussed - a vague try walking or yoga was suggested.

Dr. Srivistava was absolutely wonderful! Our appointment was so educational and together we came up with a game plan that 1 week later is working beautifully. She was also very compassionate and present.

I felt that Dr. Srivastava really listened to me and took my opinion into consideration with the treatment plan, which gives me confidence in the treatment.
