Patient Reviews
Oct 12, 2021
I had been having debilitating headaches and neck pain, and was seen multiple times over 2 months. Dr Athappilly meticulously reviewed each medical encounter, CT scan, MRI and labs with curiosity and thoughtfulness. I immediately felt that someone was finally listening. She spotted a couple of mild abnormalities in my lab results and ordered more blood work. Later that evening, she called me to let me know the lab she ordered was abnormal and she wanted to start me on high doses of steroids immediately for a suspected temporal arteritis, a disease that can result in permanent vision loss. Within 12 hours, I was feeling a little better. I feel confident I am now in good hands. I am so grateful for Dr. Athappilly for her amazing skill, knowledge, competence, and kindness. I have 2 newborn grandchildren and the gravity of never seeing them grow up because of permanent vision loss still impacts me daily. I truly believe she saved my vision and I will forever be grateful to her.
