"Update! Still highly recommend Dr. Pathikonda. But, just wanted to add that I needed to see him urgently and left a message with his assistant, she had him call me back that afternoon and you could hear the concern in his voice on the phone, he made sure they scheduled me for a procedure right away, even fitting me in his busy surgery center in less than 48hrs. The day of the procedure he came to see me ahead of going into the OR and he just has the best demeanor and bedside manners. He called me the next week with the results and to check in on me. He is truly a very caring doctor. Dr. Pathikonda was very kind and empathetic from our first meeting. He is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend him."

"Dr. Murali Pathikonda, MD literally saved my life. I'm just a regular working guy out here in the world, and the pain I was going through was the worst I ever experienced in my life, by far. I was initially misdiagnosed at the hospital, however, fate found a way of getting me there in front of Dr. Pathikonda. This man was able to communicate such a sense of care and concern so professionally yet personally, and understandably that he changed the way I see the world. He followed up every step, made sure I got directly to specific surgical contacts that I needed and just everything. This guy looked in my eyes and basically said if what was happening to me was happening to himself or his family, THIS is what he must do. There is no better admission or advice. I owe this man my life and I hope he knows he should be praised. Bless you, Dr. Pathikonda."

"Would definitely recommend Dr. Pathikonda, and the nurses are great too. You can tell they actually care about you and they don’t just treat you like a number, and they listen to all your questions and concerns. Dr. Pathikonda is also a very genuine, authentic person, and will actually take you seriously. I have unspecified esophageal dysmotility, and most of my past doctors didn’t really take much time trying to understand my condition, and rarely took my situation seriously, even though my symptoms were severe. My symptoms and condition is rare, so it’s taken some time to figure out what to do and who to go to, but I’m grateful I found Dr. Pathikonda. Some of my past doctors rushed me, and one even insinuated that I was psychotic or a hypochondriac, and I felt hopeless and like I was burden, but with Dr. Pathikonda, I felt heard and understood, and I’m confident him and his team will be able to help me with my condition."

Procedure building is right next door to his office so that's a plus! His entire staff makes you feel at ease, no embarrassing moments in his office or procedure unit! Would definitely recommend Dr. Pathikonda!"
"I met doctor Murali about 2 years ago and since then I have been visiting him regularly. He said that my medicine treatment was not under control and he prepared a new prescription and follow-up. Everything is going very well. I thank him so much for everything and I highly recommend him."
