Myself and my Family have utilized Dr. Balu Chandra for all of our consultations, colonoscopies and endoscopic procedures for over 20 years. He and his staff have ALWAYS been superb and very cautious about making the correct diagnosis and treatment plan for all of your digestive health care. When we were mired in a very difficult and dangerously life threatening medical situation with our college aged daughter with other physicians involved; Dr. Chandra was able to directly intercede with the other physicians and correct the direction they should have been looking at regarding the correct care on put everyone on the same page to really help save our daughter’s life with the correct doctors with the correct procedures. I Bless Dr. Chandra Daily with his critical thinking skills and simplifying what directions the group should go And to be simple, it worked. She has been saved and is prospering back at school; but it would not have been possible without my seeking his assistance regarding her overall care.

Dr. Chandra is personable and kind. I felt like he really listened to me and took his time during our appointment. The office staff was also very polite.
He has been our family dr for years. He is the greatest
Took 5 minutes and acted like I didn't need this surgery? Also asked if it's covered and said I think ? In my opinion of a Dr. He should discuss the issues not a 2 minute conversation
Everyone was really nice and professional

Dr. Chandra is amazing and makes you feel comfortable and safe. I wish the bill and pricing was more freely given versus provided after services such as removal of polyps this is an emergency surgery charge.
