Dr. Suma Dondapati, MD

Dr. Dondapati is medically competent when given a chance. My dissatisfaction with my medical care isn't with her but with the HMO. PCPs' patient loads are probably too large. Additionally, PCPs are little more than triage doctors for the HMO. That makes PCPs more bureaucrats than doctors. I found that to get the care I need, I have to review the HMOs document center for their clinical guidelines and make sure I "present" myself within those criteria. Once Dr. Dondapati could check off all the little boxes in her database, she was always quick to send me for diagnostic procedures or to refer me to a specialist. I suspect it is very frustrating to be an HMO doctor today. They have little autonomy to make their own medical decisions. Therefore, I gave Dr. Dondapati 5-stars because I don't want to dock her for what is a systemic problem with the HMO.

Very attentive and helpful

This doctor is arrogant and dismissive. She definitely needs a lesson in manners. Do not come here if you want to be treated with compassion.

One of the worst doctors. She is rude and has no bedside manners. Always made me feel crazy instead of digging into my symptoms a bit more. Never had time to see patients for last minute appointments. I do not recommend her.

I suffer from GBS and as a patient she was completely unhelpful any time we asked Dr.Dondapati several times for assistance with finding proper medical treatment and medication and medical documents she always says she can’t do it. What doctor does that.I would never recommend her to any who cares for their loved one or overall well being about. She’s one of those doctors that wears a white coat but doesn’t do a thing for patients she just there a waste and she rude.
