I have not felt such an air of calm confidence in a doctor Since I left my Own doctor in California in 2013. Doctor Sankara Was familiar with my case from the moment he walked in the door He walked me through my case history from the moment My lump was discovered through the surgery through the radiation And we spent a great deal of time on my Osteoporosis diagnosis He gave me options for treatment Along with side effects And helped me To a possible Care plan without trying to make my mind up for me. I felt totally safe in his care

Dr Sinkara is intentionally patient and kind. He creates a safe place for me to express my concerns and listens to me. He addresses each concern and helps manage my expectations which makes me feel like he cares for the patient as much as he care about the work he is doing. His rate of speech is at a perfect pace for me and he provides information in small doses which helps me process the concepts of my care. I respect and appreciate his approach.
