I have been as a patient myself as well as accompanying family members for their care. Also, I have worked on medical staff and in the community alongside Dr Acharya for 24 years. Dr Acharya is very diligent, intelligent and skilled, yet is also compassionate and a good communicator. Cautious and thorough, he finds that balance without over-reacting/testing or being dismissive/under-testing.
