"I recently had the pleasure of being treated by Dr. Mantas, and I must say, he is a fantastic doctor. It's incredibly rare to find someone who can handle both upper GI and lower GI issues, but Dr. Mantas is an expert at both. Since I needed help with both, it was amazing to have a doctor who could take care of all my gastrointestinal needs. Beyond his dual expert ability, Dr. Mantas has a fabulous bedside manner and is truly patient-focused. He really cares about his patients and takes the time to listen to their concerns. During my appointment, I never felt rushed. I could share all my issues, and Dr. Mantas listened intently and thoughtfully. He makes sure he thoroughly understands your situation, so you feel heard and valued. On top of that, Dr. Mantas is just a genuinely kind and nice person. I feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful doctor who not only provides excellent medical care but also offers a supportive and understanding environment. I highly recommend Dr. Mantas to anyone in need of a skilled and compassionate gastroenterologist. Robert"

"Very down to Earth. Provides clear, concise, and understandable patient education and reassurance. Is an active patient advocate at the point of contact by making great effort to understand patient's perspective. Her body language during my office visit was impressively worth mentioning because bedside manners are so strongly lacking now a days. She visibly displayed to me a respectful high level of genuine concern, and gave me a strong sense that she sincerely cares about her patients. I can't say enough words to express my gratitude and appreciation. -Amy Adams"

"Absolutely an informative and personable doctor."
"Dr. Veena listened to all my symptoms, concerns, eating habits thoroughly and also made notes of those details, she actually remembered some of the things that I had briefed in a previous visit while in a follow up visit. She prescribed lab tests, carefully examined them and recommended necessary treatment and adjustment of eating habits, ofcourse this treatment plan was specific to my condition and severity and may vary for others. I had actually called other Doctors offices near my home prior to this office, but was instantly disappointed after talking to them because they REQUIRED endo/colon scopy prior to Doctor's visit.Shows the amount of sincerity Doctor's have for treating patients. Anyways, Dr. Kumaravel mentioned the underlying cause of my issue, and if the symptoms did not come down during the treatment period, procedure will be conducted. I am more open to her intelligent deductions and procedures rather than going to tests blindly. Recommend her highly. Oh, I almost forgot, the way she meets and greets with warmth and genuine compassion is unmatched. Interaction and bed side manners are awesome. Office also has good gut health informational books in the book shelf."
"Time & Treatment was awesome. No wait time at all. Dr. Veena Kumaravel was so humble, courteous, went in depth of the issue, and diagnosed. I would give a 5 star rating. She made me feel so comfortable."

She takes time to connect with her patients, make sure she understands their concerns, and then fully answers any questions they have. Her office is also very professional, well run, and puts patients concerns as a priority. I’ve had to call during after hours and they always quickly return my calls and make sure concerns are addressed. I cannot say enough positives for this office and dr."
"We feel they did a great job. Thanks for making something not fun okay."

"Dr. Kumaravel promptly responds to questions. Thoroughly explains my diagnosis and treatment options. Highly recommended."
"This doctor sat and actually listened to my symptoms and appeared to have compassion and empathy. I just wish all of my doctors would be as well educated and sympathetic. Especially since I have mysterious symptoms. Then she had 3 plans of action. Luckily there is a medication that may help. That's plan one. So far I love this doctor! What a fantastic bedside manner!"
"I went to Dr Kumaravel on a referral from my PCP. I found Dr Kumaravel to be very personable, explaining everything in detail, laying out the pros and cons, whether for medication, testing or both. She is very sharp and extremely proactive when it comes to finding out what’s ailing you and moving forward with the treatment(s). I have never felt that she was in a hurry to get me out the door. I’ve always gotten any question I had answered promptly. The check-in process is simple and efficient and the staff has always been easy to deal with. The front office staff is knowledgeable, and they’ve always provided me with all the necessary information for any treatment and/or tests ordered by Dr Kumaravel. I love their website; it has all the test instructions for pre and post-op testing or surgery in an easy-to-read format. My calls have always been returned in a timely manner. I highly recommend Dr Veena Kumaravel and Digestive Health Associates for any digestive issue."
"She is really nice Doctor, My wife is her patient. I haven't seen a doctor who cares for her patients so much, she gives you full time to understand your problem, She personally call you if you call her in office if you have any problem.If their are more stars than 5 I will give her more stars. Unfortunately 5 is highest."
