"I have been a patient of Balu Chandra, M.D. for about 12 years! He is a very friendly and compassionate doctor who puts your mind at ease and gives you the confidence to know you have made the right decision by scheduling your appointment with him. I have Barrett’s esophagus and his office lets me know when it’s time for a recheck to prevent esophageal cancer. That’s not a cancer I want to experience."
"Dr. Balu Chandra was very nice and had a very good bedside manner and he treated me with respect and he explained things to me that were easy to understand. I would recommend him to family and colleagues."
"As it is with most guys, I was nervous about getting my first colonoscopy. Especially since I was getting an Endoscopy at the same time. This is why many men choose not to go. Well, put your mind at ease. The care given by Dr. Chandra's team was top notch. From the moment I walked in the door to the moment I left (about an hour later), the staff was respectful and courteous. I tried to keep things light-hearted because of my nervousness and they went along with it. I have no doubt that they do all that they can in order to set a tone of calm and relaxation. I did not feel any part of the procedure. None. The information provided after the procedures included multiple copies of the paperwork. This included follow-up instructions, printed photographs, contact numbers for the clinic, medications that were prescribed and self-care steps at home. I had two polyps removed and there was no bleeding afterward, nor was there any pain. In fact, the first thing I wanted to do was eat! The follow-up was completed via FaceTime. I do not know if this is the normal practice or if it was due to living in the time of Covid-19. All of my questions were answered and, if I had more, they were just a phone call away. I cannot express my gratitude enough for the staff here. Men – do yourself a favor and get yourself checked out. This is especially needed for 45+. DO NOT WAIT!!! Ladies, have your husband (or significant other) read this and, hopefully, it will help put them at ease. Again: There was no pain nor discomfort, the staff was knowledgeable and pleasant, and I cannot say enough for the care shown to me. Thank you."
"Excellent physician. Extremely kind, patient and knowledgeable."
"Sweetest doctor works WITH you to get to the bottom of your digestive issues."
"All was great except the Suprep. It has a vile taste - I nearly vomited several times. Please give me an alternative next time."
