Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Horrible Manner Towards Patients
My daughter has been taking the same meds for sleep for 7 years. This doctor rather than ween my daughter off the med cut her off cold turkey. She requested she do a sleep study but failed to provide her any info as to where or when. I spoke to my insurance company and they stated the DOCTOR needed to send me to do the sleep study not myself. Please do not take your child here. There are many better well established practitioners who understand how to removing a medication a child has taken for her entire life should be treated. By the way my daughter has had sleep studies done already and this doctor has her medical record.

Not Recommended
This pediatrician WILL NOT be there when you need them the most. When she treats minor colds or does the annual exams you schedule two weeks in advance, she is fine. But her practice is too busy and she will not see you when you need her for more serious concerns. We are the patients of Dr. Chintakayala Durga, but we have never seen him at this location. Perhaps he is there only with the name. We have always been treated only by Dr. Raguthu who obviously treats Dr. Durga's patients as well. When we tried to reach out to her about a suspicious pain, she was too busy to see us. Luckily we did not wait for the appointment another day and went somewhere else because we ended up admitted in the hospital with a life threatening condition. It was not a good experience though to have the person who is supposed to be our primary care physician not even be there with some advice. We will not return to this place.

Dr. Raguthu and her staff are simply amazing!!! I have a daughter who requires a lot at times, I can reach out to the office for something and they get right on. I have no problems getting referrals I need for my daughters. Not only is Dr. Raguthu and her staff great with my daughters, they care about the well being of their parents as well.

Dr. Ragutu is a very humane doctor. She is available to her patients at all times and insists on being reached anytime if the situation of the child is concerning. Genuinely listens to your concerns/questions and answers them all and provides you the best possible option. During the current covid19 situation, she didn't hesitate to check up our baby over facetime (on a sunday) and also in person as we felt face-to-face checkup would be more revealing of my child's condition. I would not hesitate even a little to recommend Dr. Ragutu to any parent for their child's care. Thank you

Doctor Raguthu is very attentive and listens to patient concerns. She is very responsive when you call in with medical questions. When the staff says that she will call you before the end of the day Doctor Raguthu WILL call you before the end of the day and talk you through your medical concerns.

Dr Raguthu has been great with my two boys! Availability, staff friendliness, and patient care are high quality. She and her staff are approachable for kids and parents. They always take time to explain procedures to my boys and I. Front office scheduling and reminder calls are on the mark!

She is an exceptional doctor. Great with kids. Doesn’t rush through. Takes her time to listen and assess. She even called back on a weekend when we had an issue with our child. I would definitely trust her expertise and judgment.
