I felt comfortable talking to him.
He ordered some tests and I feel he really wants to help me. I'm happy I met him.
I would highly recommend this office.
my only contact with Dr. Siddaiah was limited to a very brief encounter in the procedure room before the colonoscopy. I did not meet or see him following the procedure and received my results from the nurse. I am grateful that the outcome of the procedure was good; perhaps this was the reason for the nurse’s report and instructions (very thorough and complete) and not from the doctor.
I also experienced dysphasia for a couple of hours following the colonoscopy. I was able to speak to a nurse and Dr. Siddaiah both within an hour from my call to report this condition. While the exact reason for the dysphasia is not known, it may have been a side effect from the anesthesia. I will be noting this in my medical records in the future.
While I believe that the colonoscopy was completed with medical expertise, I would have appreciated more contact with Dr. Siddaiah for pre and post procedure information.
I went in for consult and will have procedure before end of month. Highly recommend
