Dr. AB has been seeing my mom for several years. He is very kind to her and patient with her questions. He wants what's best for her while keeping in mind that she is 88 years old. He is not pushy nor does he rush her appointments. Should I every need a cardiologist, Dr. AB is who I want to see!

Dr. Balachandran is an amazing intelligent, compassionate Doctor who is very caring of his patients and takes his time with his patients making sure both the patient and their family members understand what is going to happen. He is even equally concerned for the patient's family who come. Even in the most frightening moments of terrible decisions he puts you at ease both with your confidence in him and that you feel like he truly does care about his patients as people. Because he does, some things can't be faked. Patients and concerned family are welcomed to ask questions until they understand. The staff is amazing also especially Sherry she is amazing plus her laugh can lighten the darkest moments. I don't even mind the wait time which has rarely been over 30 min. because I know someone is needing his time like I am sure we are about to get.

My husband and I both see Dr Balachandran (Dr AB) and are very pleased with his care. He seems to be quite knowledgeable in his specialty and has recommended creative solutions for health issues for us. We appreciate his upbeat manner, his consistent encouragement and his terrific sense of humor. We place a lot of trust is his skills.

Dr. Balachandran , happily known to his patients as “Dr. AB”, has been my cardiology doctor for almost two years, and he is a great doctor, that I would recommend highly .
Not only is he very competent , he takes the time to talk everything over with his patients, and explains anything that the patient does not understand.
I really like that I am a part of my medical decisions, and at the same time, I can trust my doctor to make wise judgements about my health care .

Very professional, courteous, caring, and very knowledgeable. Listens intently to your issues, fully answers questions in terms the layman can understand. He orders required testing before reaching an appropriate diagnosis and then discusses with you his treatment plan for your illness. Never rushes the time he spends with a patient.

Met Dr. Balachandran as an ER patient. He was knowledgeable, caring, patient, and thorough. I think I best describe him and his staff as running a very patient centered practice. His professionalism, attitude and demeanor are reflected in the staff.

Dr Balachandran ( Dr AB) takes time to answer questions and gives understandable explanations. He is professional yet kind. His Nurse Practioner and Office Manager (Bree) are very professional and kind,too, as are everyone I’ve encountered at
Dr AB’s office. Glad I discovered this physician!
