I have seen Dr. Pamadurthi, MD since Oct. of 2017. I like that he challenges me to try and learn skills that help me deal with my symptoms because I am a person that gets ill with most meds. This year was a roller coaster of emotions--depression, crying spells, manic episodes, anxiety. Hardly any of the meds I tried were helping. I felt as if I had ran out of options. In August, Dr. P suggested I try rTMS treatments. I did them daily for 6 weeks. He also had me work out at least half an hour daily, and study several mindfulness worksheets during the week. Fast forward to New Year's Eve and I had not had any manic episodes, anxiety attacks, or major depression. Honestly, I am handling things a lot better, even though I have had to deal with Covid-19 changes, and other hardships. It's a miracle I haven't lost it or reverted to old familiar crutches. I highly recommend Dr. Pamadurthi and I can testify that the rTMS treatments have been a life changer. No need for antidepressants.

Dr. Pamadurthi is an outstanding Psychiatrist . He has been treating my 94 year old mother for the past 5 years and has helped her fully recover from misdiagnosis and incorrect medications by 5 previous psychiatric Doctors and institutions. He not only listens carefully to her and is very compassionate; but also continually works with her medical doctors and me to keep my mother in good health both mentally and physically.

I was a patient of Dr. Pamadurthi's for not quite 3 years. I say "was" because, with Dr. Pamadurthi's care and management, I have made it through the deep depression and anxiety issues that severely affect the lives of me and my family. I can truly say that were it not for him, I would not be here today to share my experience with you.

Excellent listener and honest is the most simplest way to describe my experience visiting with him. Discussed all options and did not push a specific treatment on me and that's what I have loved most about having him as my doctor.

As a retired RN, I had heard bad stories in the past about ECT. I was not interested in having it with my present depression episode. However with weeks of drug therapy, I was not improving. I reluctantly agreed to the ECT and after 4 or 5 treatments I could tell I was better. With Dr Parmadurthi's technique for ECT, I had no headaches or nausea after the treatment. It has been a year after my last ECT and I am doing very well under his care. The ECT made the difference for me!

Dr. Pamadurthi is an excellent psychiatrist. He takes the time to listen to my issues and never rushes the appointment. I have found him extremely knowledgeable in medications and their interactions. I have been in a really bad place mentally and Dr. Pamadurthi has been successfully weeding through the mess I have been. I highly recommend Dr. Pamadurthi for your mental health provider.

I have been a patient of Dr. Pamadurthi for approximately 2 years and am very pleased with his services. The atmosphere of the office is very calming and inviting. Dr. Pamadurthi has personally tailored a treatment plan for me and I feel better than I' ve felt in quite some time. This was something my previous doctors were unable to accomplish. I would encourage anyone seeking a psychiatrist to consult with Dr. Pamadurthi for treatment. I highly recommend him.

I have a brother who suffers from depression and anxiety. He became so ill he could not live on his own or care for himself. He was hospitalized numerous times with no results because the doctors were only changing his Meds.Dr Pamadurthi knew right away he needed ECT's. My brother is now back to being able to live on his own and care for himself. I cannot express enough how important ECT's are for helping some people when Meds alone don't work, it saved my brothers life. Thank you Dr Pamadurthi

Dr Pamadurthi in my opinion is an incredible doctor. After only a couple of months he corrected an incorrect diagnosis from a family doctor from a few years ago. He corrected my medication regime and I am doing so much better. Dr Pamadurthi has been my doctor now for several years and I am always impressed with his office, staff, and his concern and caring for my optimum well-being. He analyzes quickly and gives really solid common sense advice.

Dr. Pamadurthi is very understanding and immediately addressed my concerns. He approached my illness with empathy and gave me hope that things would change and get better. I was very scared and sad when I first went in and it was very difficult for me to accept I had a problem. He has given me hope and that has completely changed my mind set and the way I can move forward.

I 've been seeing Dr. Pamadurthi for a little over a year. I have bipolar disease , diagnosed in early 1999. I know I have seen well over 10 doctors, and was at what's end when I found Dr. P online. st contact, of course, was with Crystal, who is awesome ,and worked hard to get me in. From my first appt on, he has worked miracles. My diagnosis is bipolar 2, rapid cycling, mixed episodes. For years no doctor has been able to make me feel better. He is so great with meds, I feel NORMAL!

The kindness and the fact he actually really listens to you acknowledges you as a human being and not just some pill pusher,which many I have experienced in the past. He has compassion for his patients that's a big plus in my book!
