Patient Reviews
Jul 25, 2023
I have been going to Dr Kannam for at least 15 years. Have found him to be knowledgable and trustworthy. He also is not fast to recommend surgery. He tries everything first but will recommend surgical procedures if he must. He returns his emails and calls in a timely manner. Yes, sometimes he may he rushed as he is a cardiologist and may have an emergency patient call. I’ve seen him in office at least 35 times and he always listens and hears my concerns. I trust him in every way and he has been spot on in my diagnoses over these many years. BTW I know many of his colleagues recommend him to their families. Many of the doctors I have met in my treatment know him and use him as their family cardiologist. Upbeat perspective and personality. Highly recommend l!!
