Dr. Krishnan rocks. She was very thorough in her evaluation and suggested referrals to me without even asking that I had been begging my previous PCP to provide for years. She listened and she didn't dismiss any of my concerns. There was an actionable plan for each of the issues I had been having by the end of my visit. She has singlehandedly restored my faith in general practitioners as a whole discipline. Excellent, excellent clinician.

September 28, 2025
Often, medically complex patients are forced to choose between a provider with good bedside manner or a knowledgeable provider. I don't have to make that choice because Dr, Krishnan is both. She shows she cares for her patients by looking at them when they speak instead of burying her face in the computer. She has the bravery to be honest when she doesn't have an answer and a referral is the best answer. I have so much to say about her but I think the best thing I can express here is gratitude for having found this incredible doctor.
September 27, 2025

She is great. I don't want any more surveys. My providers are great and when not so I have made changes. It is Endeavor itself, With which I am completely disgusted and none of your surveys let me evaluate your system, it's frustrating difficulty to use, to get the information I need and to communicate with Endeavor as an ignorant, offensive and unhealthy structure.
