Dr. Nimmagadda was AMAZING!! From the minute he walked in the door he made me feel important and that my health was his priority. Prior to our meeting he read my history, which immediately showed me he cared. As I talked he listened intently, and from that laid out a plan for me. He was able to provide direction with options for next steps. He is a kind and gentle man, who went above and beyond to help me find relief!
