Dr. Sandhu is one of the best doctors I've encountered in my 65+ years. She is highly responsive, attentive and well informed. Her innate curiousity and true interest in getting to the bottom of things rather than just treat the symptom is outstanding. Her previous experience as a hospitalist likely has given her a deeper level of experience than most PCP's. I highly recommend her.

Dr. Sandhu asked pertinent questions to obtain an understanding of why I was there to see her. After we talked, she examined the areas in question then determined a course of action. She explained her thoughts on what was going on and welcomed questions.

She was very patient with me. I had the wrong time o n my calendar and in the panic couldn't login to the video but she seamlessly switched to a phone visit without making me feel bad.
