What People Say About Dr. Narayan Krishnamurthy, MD

I drive almost 100 miles, one way, to see Dr. K. His staff is excellent and their willingness to make your experience a positive one rates a 10/10. I suffered for years with chronic sleep apnea and I had seen other physicians and had a failed sleep study and an overall bad experience. I looked for months for a physician who would take my situation seriously and I kept coming back to Dr. K and his experience as a pulmonologist with sleep medicine. I highly recommend this doctor to everyone.

Dr. Krishnamurthy has been my sleep doctor for 7 years and does a great job of not only providing treatment but education and support for my condition. He is prompt, caring and a great doc. The wait time at his office is usually very short and he is a compassionate, excellent physician.

From the pleasant front desk staff, to the knowledgeable nurses, to Dr. K himself, everything about the Comprehensive Sleep and Breathing Center is completely professional. They all take time to answer any question, explain everything they are suggesting, and make you feel that you are the only patient they have to care for that day. After a sleep study and CPAP machine recommended by Dr. K I'm sleeping better and feeling more rested than ever before. I recommend him and his staff very highly
