"Dr Ravi was great and unfortunately I had to meet him while hospitalized due a bad reaction to chemo for pancreatic cancer. Dr. Ravi's bedside manner and care he provided myself comfort but also my family that was definitely needed at the time. As a cancer patient, I speak and meet with many doctors and being in the hospital for the 1st time ever, I was feeling awful to be admitted for a week and Dr. Ravi came a saw me everyday and encouraged me to do the things that I could to get better and get released. This is important to note because, I was actually married in the hospital chapel due to not be able to be released. I happy to say that I am on the backside of the Cancer mountain as of writing this."
"Dr Ravi and his team performed my first colonoscopy this week. Because of some health concerns, he saw me beforehand and opted to do the procedure at the hospital instead of the day surgery center.

"EXCELLENT DOCTOR! I have used Dr.Ravi for over 10 years. Always professional, answered questions quickly, suggest reasonable approaches not expensive medicines or not required procedures! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!"
"Dr. Ravi Chittajallu is very attentive to your needs. He was able to properly diagnose what was wrong with me after I had gone to various doctors who could not give me an answer to the problems regarding my health. He is patient and pays close attention to the details of his patients' concerns, and genuinely wants to help. Before seeing Dr. Chittajallu, I had went to doctor after doctor and underwent many MRIs, CT-Scans and lab work that left me with no answers. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Chittajallu."
"I had a blockage of a heart stent in June, 2020. My cardiologist asked Dr. Chittajallu to see me thinking that some of my chest pains might be caused by some gastrointestinal problems. Dr. Ravi came into my room and it was immediately apparent that this physician is brilliant and secondly that he is a throwback to the physician who cares about the relationship between doctor and patient. He took his time in asking me questions, examining me, checking my charts and then told me that I display all the symptoms of IBS. He prescribed some meds and advised me on how to change my diet in order to improve my health. After my relaease he continued to check on me, to assist me when I had distress and to ensure that my medical problems where not more serious than appeared on the surface. A CT scan and a MRI proved him correct. His office, especially his medical assistant Geepa were attentive, kind, and took care to ensure good communication. If you are looking for the best internal medicine physician in McKinney, call Dr. Ravi Chittajallu. You will not be disappointed. Great doctor, professional staff."
"Dr. Ravi is an absolute amazing doctor. The attention to detail he gives is second to none. He explains the whole process to you what’s going on and he completely puts you at ease. I’ve never felt more comfortable around a doctor in my life. His staff is professional and they actually treat you like a person. I drove from a state away just to use this doctor. He will be my doctor from here on out until he retires which hopefully won’t be for years to come."
"After putting off this long overdue colonoscopy procedure for a while, I finally decided that it was time to do it. I was referred to Dr. Ravi Chittajallu at Methodist Craig Ranch Surgery Center and I'm glad that I did. The worst part of this procedure was taking the prep meds the night before to help clear your bowels. The staff was cordial and professional. After the procedure Dr. Chittajallu came by the recovery room and went over the results with me. The whole process, from when I got there to when the nurse wheel me out to my vehicle (my wife drove), took no more that 2 and a half hrs! Thanks to Dr. Ravi's assistant Ms. Geetha for making everything so easy for me. I would definitely recommend Dr. Ravi Chittajallu at Methodist Craig Ranch Surgery Center. Thank you, JRG."

"I haven't used Dr Ravi for anything except for Colonoscopies, but all 3 have gone well. He discovered stage 3 canceruos polyps on the first procedure and was able to remove most of them. A 2nd procedure was required a week later to get the rest of them. I did require surgery to remove a portion my colon, but that was my fault for waiting too long to have my first procedure. I just had my 1-year follow-up colonoscopy and everything came out fine. Dr. Ravi has surgical access too many different hospitals so it makes it easier to schedule a procedure when needed."
"Visiting with Dr. Chittajallu is always a pleasure. He is easy to talk to, he smiles and is simply a pleasant person.

"Dr. Ravi is the best Gastroligist I've ever had. He's patient and very informed. He takes the time to answer any question you have, and goes into alot of details. I recommend him to everyone I know."
"After a few office visits I find that Dr. Chittajallu offers good advice and despite being presented with various symptoms, he is able to hone in on the main issue that needs to be given attention. I find that he does spend time with patients and does not quickly dismiss them in order to get to the next patient. The office staff personnel are cordial and responsive. Also, as a new patient, I did not have to wait long for the first appointment - only 7 days as opposed to weeks or months for some other doctors."
"Very much pleased with the service that I received from Dr. Ravi and his team. Punctual and meticulous. I did highly appreciate the follow and the guidance they had provided to me before and after the procedure.

"Dr. Ravi is one of the most caring, nicest, knowledgeable doctors we have come across in DFW. He takes the time to listen to patients, truly analyzes the problem, and explains his recommendations in a detailed manner, along with alternative treatment options. We called his answering service with an emergency during the holidays, and his suggestions actually saved us a trip to the ER. It is rare to find a medical professional who is a good person, genuinely cares, and is at the forefront of his practice as well. We are very blessed to be his patients."
"I know this is a phrase that's used often but in my case it's very true. Dr. Ravi literally saved my life in January of 2020. I'll be forever grateful for the care he gave me and I've recommended him to many friends and family. He's indeed a very special, knowledgeable and caring doctor. Thanks again, Dr. Ravi, you are forever in my prayers!"
"The whole staff was great. Procedure went on time and smooth. I also had to get it done in a hurry and get results back. They needed clearance from my cardeologest. Jeeta called me and kept me informed the whole way. The Dr even had after hours attempt to get clearance. Called me on a friday night at 8pm to tell me we were a go for monday morning. This staff went up and beyond to make it happen."
"Dr. Ravi was exceptional and clearly explained the procedure and results to me. Once I spoke with him I felt much more comfortable about things. My sincere thanks to Dr. Ravi and his PA (Geetha) who was also exceptional and responsive to the questions I had as part of pre-op. Kurt"
"I have used Dr. Ravi more than once and todays visit was what I have experienced in the past. From speaking with Geetha to my visit with Dr. Ravi, everything went well. Geetha was able to squeeze me in with about two hours notice. Dr. Ravi was patient, asked many questions and seemed to care about my situation. I will continue to use the DHAT group in the future. I could not be more pleased."
"My experience with Dr. Chittajalu and staff was excellent. They provided clear instructions ahead of my procedure, and they provided a steady stream of reminders so that I would not forget either the appointment or any key elements of the preparation. The staff at the endoscopy center were warm and friendly, and very professional. The procedure went smoothly - Dr. Ravi consulted both prior to and after the procedure to answer questions. Prompt follow up after the procedure to make sure I was ok. All in all a very professional operation, and a satisfied client."

"I searched Chittajallu I got your name it's my Sur name"
"I been needing to write this for sometime now. Dr. Chittajallu has my deepest respect when he treated my father when several years ago. He was the most compassionate most respectful doctor treating my father. When I entered the medical field and made a career in Mckinney, I have trusted everyone of my patients who had gastrointestinal concerns to his care and all have stated he was the best doctor. Doctor Chittajallu if you are reading this thanks for all your help for my father and my patients."
"I only have 5 stars because 10 wasn't an option. I have been going to Dr Ravi for almost 2 years and I feel so lucky to have found such a compassionate and caring group of people. To the ladies at the front desk, to the medical assistants and the Doctors Thank you! I have and will continue to reccomend this office to friends and family because they are that good! Keep up the great work!"
