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.

Dr Reddy is a life saver
Dr. Reddy met me when I was transported to the hospital by ambulance with a bowel strangulation. Dr Reddy laparoscopicly removed abdominal adhesions for hours and was able to save my bowels. Throughout my week of hospitalization he was polite, thorough, compassionate, patient, attentive and explanatory with myself and my family. He is the absolute best.

Doctor Reddy took the time to help me feel comfortable and less nervous about my surgery. He fully explained the process and answered any questions I had. After my 5hr. long surgery he took the time to reassure my wife that everything went as planned. Throughout this whole ordeal Doctor Reddy has been compassionate and understanding. I have recommended him to all of my family and friends. I feel Doctor Reddy is one of Alice Hyde's most valuable assets.

Dr. Reddy was very professional and personable. He did an amazing job and because of that I healed very quickly. UVM is very lucky to have such a talented surgeon! I wouldn't have anyone else do my surgeries. Thank you Dr. Reddy for my making my experience the best it could be. I will be recommending Dr. Reddy to all of my friends and family for any surgeries they may need!

Dr Reddy took the time to review my test results when other physicians found them negative. I had severe gallbladder symptoms and needed my gallbladder removed. Dr Reddy did the surgery and my gallbladder was diseased and had a stone. I feel much better and can eat again. Dr Reddy is professional,kind and very knowledgable. I have a high regard for his abilities.

I had numerous appointments and Dr Reddy is always clear about explaining the symptoms to the problems you’re having. He presents all the procedures and gives the best course of action to resolve the issue. He tells you step by step what will be done, the medicine given and estimated time for recovery. Dr. Reddy’s door is always open and his staff is very understanding, helpful, and respectful. Dr. Reddy and his team are the most outstanding professional Medical team that I have ever met.

Dr. Reddy is a wonderful surgeon. He takes the time to listen to your concerns and comes up with a plan of action. Also he is very good at explaining his intentions in a way normal people can understand. He also has good follow up practices. Besides being highly skilled and trained, he is held in high regard by many nurses and fellow doctors. Before choosing Dr. Reddy to perform my surgery I had only heard good things about him. I am quite pleased with my choice and would recommend him to all.

Dr. Reddy performed surgery on my fifteen year old son. Before hand he was amazing, got him in immediately, explained the issues and procedure in a way my son understood and made sure my son was comfortable. The surgery location was wonderful and the procedure itself was smooth. The best part was that he took his time to make sure that every detail was done well, and to decrease scarring. I would recommend him to everyone I know.

Dr Reddy did my Mother's surgery at UVM-AHMC and he was absolutely phenomenal. He spoke to her with such a caring attitude and he went above and beyond to ensure her care was the best possible. He is the best of the best and he was the only Doctor with the correct initial diagnosis of her condition and I would recommend him to anyone!
