Review for Dr. Sudarshan

The staff at the infusion and treatment area are top notch. Being a retired RN, I observed their skills and manner they treated their patients. They are all so caring and attentive to each patient which is so important when patients are arriving scared and unaware of what lies ahead. Could not tell...
