Dr. Krishnamoorthy is amazing. He is so gentle and has an incredible bedside manner. He is very thorough in his assessment of your situation and needs. I would want no other surgeon to be taking care of me. I highly recommend him to any person that needs surgery.

Nice, calm and supportive doctor. I would recommend him to my friends and family. He answered all of my questions promptly before & after surgery.

I was so impressed with Dr. K! He was so empathetic, kind and caring. He put me at ease and used a wonderful, easy to understand analogy to explain my situation. A diagnosis of breast cancer isn't easy to face but the team of doctors I have received have given me faith that I will be treated successfully. Dr. K truly exceeded my expectations.
