"Excellent experience. Professional, courteous, and quick."
"Dr. Sumanth Daram has been my doctor for over a year. He was referred by my wonderful PPC, Dr. Sumera Muzaffar and highly recommended. True to Dr. Muzaffar’s assessment, Dr. Daram is an exceptional and dedicated physician with a kind and gentle demeanor who takes time to listen to his patients and to explain everything very clearly. This is my personal experience regarding Dr. Daram’s quality of care and medical expertise: He recently performed a colonoscopy and endoscopy procedure on me. I felt a great deal of anxiety prior to the procedure. Dr. Daram took the time to listen to my concerns, address my apprehension, and relieve my fears. I read about the side effects that may result from the procedure the evening before. It was a long list of possible issues from mild to severe. To my utter surprise and relief, other than fatigue from fasting the day before and staying up late into the night to drink the required concoction, I felt perfectly fine - wonderful in fact - after the procedure. I feel confident that this is a testament to Dr. Daram’s outstanding abilities as a physician. I trust Dr. Daram and highly recommend him with enthusiasm."
