Yes, the doctor is very knowledge and experienced and he's a great healthcare provider. He knows exactly what he's talking about. He was able to help me and my daughter get the best treatment that she needed.

(Staff name) is so pleasant. And Dr. Shankar is very kind and spent a lot of time with us listening and encouraging us during the appointment.
(Patient), her dad and I all felt that (Patient) was taken very good care of while in the hospital and at her follow up appt by ID. Our concerns were addressed and questions were answered. Also appreciate the encouragement and wisdom handling a medical set back. Thank you very much. (Family name)
Dr. Shankar is the best Dr.! He is has so knowledgeable and has the best bedside manor! I cant say enough good things about him.
The doctor I seen in the children was phenomenal. He was very, very depth. He gave me a port, what's that called, on my, it's a website that I can go to. I can Skype him. I can see him at any time. He answered every question, told me things. Yeah, he was very knowledgeable. Best I dealt with in three weeks. He got everything on a broomstick and on its way, and I've had a very good experience.
The infectious disease doctor that we met with was very thorough. He talked everything out. He even drew a picture so I would understand everything completely great doctor! Very nice bedside manner.
Doctor was amazing. He was not familiar with our daughter's case and took the time to fully review her chart, confirmed our understanding of the situation, explained and showed the MRI to us, addressed all our questions and included our daughter in the discussion. I could not have been more pleased with the care we received. He also followed up very quickly with results from labs done today and called in meds for us.
Very knowledgeable and kind doctor and nurse. They patiently listened to and answered our nervous parent questions. Thank you!
