Dr. Chandra is very thorough in his examination during consultation for colonoscopy and endoscopy. He looks at medicines, chronic illness and your symptoms to determine course of action. He's personable, professional and an excellent gastrointestinal physician.
Very knowledgeable, personable and caring.
Dr Chaundra saved my life! When I came to Dr. Chandra I was experiencing sever stomach, gallbladder, and Pancreas pain. Obviously I was completely scared because I made the mistake of searching Google. His bedside manner is impeccable. He is not one to just throw a prescription at you. He treats the issue not just the symptoms. In less than 6-months all of my symptoms disappeared because I followed his instructions on what to cut out of my diet and start on a clean, non medication health plan. He definitely prevented things from growing far worse as I stopped taking some of the self medicating options that I was ingesting. Thank you Dr. Chandra. You saved my life!
Love Dr Chandra, he spends time with you and explains in terms you understand. He really cares!!!

This is by far the most efficient, and friendliest doctor's office. Dr. Chandra is the doctor you wish you always had. He is friendly, approachable, common sense, with the best bed side manner. He is never rushed when speaking with you and takes great effort to explain and help you understand the issues and treatments.
Dr. Chandra was excellent! He took the time to read my hospital records from last May, on my phone. Explained the diagnosis and what caused it! He did my first colonoscopy 10 years ago and I am thankful I will have him for my upcoming colonoscopy in May! He is easy to talk to and actually listens to you and gives you time for questions and answers them.
Every visit is always very professional and courteous from the front desk to the technicians. Dr Chandra is always very thorough to make sure that he make sure you have a very clear understanding of all results and any future follow ups.
