Review for Dr. Pandarinath
I took my elderly father to see him and he was so through and kind. All his staff were nice and friendly. Dr Sun was great - I really felt like he looked at the whole picture of my dad not one little thing. He allowed us to ask questions and gave trustworthy advice- I’m so glad we found him.

Well done. Understood the problem and provided good advice and initial treatment. Was considerate about my needle-phobia and ensured that the injection was handled in accordance with my wishes.
