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.

Excellent Care
Unfortunately, I had to get treated by Dr. Korabathina during an emergency procedure. His "bedside" manner was excellent and his skill was equally excellent. I highly recommend him for any heart issues you may have.

Highly skilled and innovative.
His patient and thorough explanation of the procedure and potential challenges made me comfortable and confident in his care. Post surgically he took time with me and my family to share details about the procedure itself, outcome, and coming recuperative period that was very much appreciated.

My husband had a mild heart attack & was rushed to St. Anthony’s Hospital where he was serendipitously placed under Dr. K’s care. This doc saved his life w/ 2 surgeries to insert stents in blockages. We were in capable hands. Dr. K is highly skilled with an excellent reputation, also has soothing energy, empathy, & centering bedside manner. He drew diagrams, showed us video of my husband’s artery surgery. We made a connection & are so confident in Dr K, we will travel 2 hrs to him for OP care.

Dr Korabathina is amazing. He performed an emergency angioplasty during my heart attack and literally saved my life. He was so calming and explained everything as he went making me feel confident and less scared. He took the time to explain everything again to me and my husband right after the procedure. Aside from his medical genius his bedside manner is outstanding. He is warm and caring and spends as much time as you need. His follow up care has been superb. His office staff is great too!
