Dr was very accommodating to change appointment to virtual. Dr explained in detail gave me an opportunity to ask questions and relieved any concerns I had. Very helpful and detailed.
He was professional, knowledgeable, and had fantastic personality. He educated us, asked a lot of questions, gave possible solutions, and had a great sense of humor! Might be our favorite doctor yet! 110%! Some doctors are awful, some are good, few are great. So far, he seems great.
The friendly staff that took their time with us from the tech, nurse, and Dr. Krishna, they were amazing and not rushed. We felt heard in every step of the appointment.
The doctor Was absolutely amazing. He was very nice and explained everything and made sure to include my daughter since the appointment was about her. Loved him
Had an excellent visit. He has made me feel hopeful on coming up with a solution to my granddaughters problems.
Very thorough, kind, and engaging with myself as a parent and my child.
Dr Krishna was very thorough and interacted very well with my son
I have been blown away with all our care at Akron Children's, and this time was no exception. Thank you so much for all the care.
Dr. Krishna and his staff is/are excellent in his communication and plan of care for his patients!
Doctor was very caring. He even called and followed up with her test results. So nice to encounter a doctor who truly cares.
