Dr Upendar cared about my feelings as well as my physical condition. He gave very clear and thorough explanations of test results and presented all treatment options, along with expected outcomes. He made sure to refer to my complete health chart when discussing test results, taking a whole-body approach to related diagnoses. I felt that his recommendations were science based, and I could trust his expert advice.
