"Dr. Vellanki ... shows up late sometime but I am ok with that. He looks out for my health and I would give him 5 stars."
— Healthgrades review for Dr. Nandakumar Vellanki"He does not listen at all. Just prescribes medications. His over prescribing caused me issues... his office staff seems to be barely competent, in addition to unfriendly and uncaring."
— Vitals review for Dr. Jerry I. Levine"She takes time to get to know you so she can tell when something is wrong. I think she is the number 1 Internist/Geriatician in this geography."
