Dr. Puthumana was outstanding. He took the time to not just tell me the results, but to show them to me. He helped me understand what was going on with my heart, and even identified something else that has not been addressed by any of my previous Doctors. Dr. Puthumana is an exceptional Doctor, and I have already recommended him to my Father and peers.
