Dr. Sri Koneru, MD

My appointment with Dr. Koneru was like the trope videos where a woman goes to the doctor with chronic pain and the doctor says every dismissive comment possible. Highly DO NOT recommend. She does not take patients seriously.

Dr Koneru is an excellent Dr. She diagnosed me with psoriatic arthritis and tried a couple of meds to halt the progression of joint destruction. Also my psoriasis disappeared. She put me on cosentyx. She is very kind, a good listener and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend her.

I am so happy with her, she has really helped me. I wouldn't think of going to anyone else. She has always listened to me and answered all my questions. Is never in a hurry.

The most egregious part of my last visit is her relentless ability not to LISTEN. Skeletal pain is NOT Fibromyalgia. By definition Fibromyalgia refers to muscular pain. Doctors like this have driven me to become my own best patient advocate. I refrain from commenting on bedside manner. A single star is already the lowest mark.

I've been a patient for several years. Scheduling can occasionally be a challenge, but I'm sticking with her. Before I started seeing her, I could barely walk and was considering using a cane on a regular basis. After about a year under her care the pain was gone and hasn't been back for several years.

She’s absolutely amazing! After having a terrible experience with another Rheumatologist I went to see her for a second opinion. She actually took the time to listen to me, she went though all my tests and medical record, she performed a complete physical examination (head to toe). I absolutely recommend her!

Very thorough exam and explainations. Enjoyed her professional yet friendly bedside manner. I was a bit worried after reading a few negative reviews and almost changed my appointment. I am so happy that I did not do so. She answered every question I asked and completely explained and showed me the blood work results and xrays from my first visit. I highly recommend Dr. Koneru!!

Last time I saw her, my nasal lining was so dry it was raw. She told me to use a certain nose spray. It burned because the skin was raw. She said I was allergic to the spray (wrong) and sent me away to keep suffering. Cold and uncaring personality, never went back. Wish Christ Hopsital would put someone there who is competent, caring and a good listener. Prime location for many patients!

Dr. Koneru has been a fantastic partner in solving my back pain issues. She was the only doc who finally identified my true issue after years of searching and poor diagnosis from other docs. She is always caring and helpful!

After seeing her 3 mos. I'm told I have Fibro, put on meds, no explanations and DO NOT ask as it offends her. Over the years of seeing her every couple mos. when I complained of my pain I was told to exercise & lose weight. Weight which I gained from the meds. On my last visit she says Fibro is not even a real illness..WHAT? She diagnosed me. My hubs has gone to every appt so he also knows how rude & unwilling she is to explore other treatments. I won't ever go back.

I waited a month for an appointment when I saw her for my Pain I have been having she shrugged it off as to it's caused by my weight. I'm sorry but being constantly in pain has nothing to do with your weight in my opinion. When I was trying to explain my symptoms and pain she would cut me off with a rude remark. I won't be going back to her office. I also had to wait 25 mins to be seen. Very unprofessional.

She diagnosed me and instead of explaining it she just put me on two medications. Despite knowing all the side effects I tried it, and it when it made me sick I went back. She tried to put me on another medication I never heard of and when i asked her the side effects, if it was still in clinical trials, if it was a immunosuppressant drug; she stated and I quote "you know sometimes you just have to listen to me, I am the doctor. So do you want the medication or not." I left and never went back!

Worst office and doctor ever. First experience. I had waited for appt for over 2 months. They confirmed it Friday before. Monday morning of appt, cancelled. Overbooking to schedule months later. Then I see her. Plead for her to look further at the issue. At unconventional reasons for why I'm going through What I'm going through. She tells me this is the answer, there is no other explanation. Really? As a dr, You can Say that with certainty. Nothing else hidden? Maybe, but maybe not
