We have started some testing, and I feel confident he will get to the root of the problem. I would recommend him to all of my friends and family.

"Dr Pathikonda stepped up to help me with what had become a difficult and confusing time. He saw me quickly and sorted out testing and protocol procedures which put me on a better path. He did so professionally and kindly."
"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."
