Dr. Chandra is the epitome of compassionate care. She listens, is empathetic, and spends enough time so I feel looked-after instead of rushed past. I trust her and value her advice. She practices the way many of us remember medicine being before the bean counters took over and started charting performance based on the number of cases seen in a day.
