Patient Reviews
Nov 16, 2021
I saw DR Rao for the first time on Novmber 16, 2021 and was very pleased and satisfied. Dr. Henry Patel in this same practice had been my cardiologist for many years until he passed away. Dr Rao has the same caring mannerism as DR Patel and her professional background is very impressive. I look forward to a long association with her.
