Excellent Assessment (rare quality)
One of the very best PC I have ever been to. Takes time to really get to know you and assess everything going on, and without judgment. Excellent bedside manner. Trustworthy and aware. She is smart in real life and as an MD. Trust with my entire family.

My Primary Care Doctor
This practice is the best I've ever been to. I am so happy that I accidentally made the acquaintance of Dr. Usha when she was with another large practice for a short time. I was happy again, after googling her, to find that she had started her own practice. All the people who work there are courteous and respectful. Dr. Usha greets you with a smile and asks how you are doing before she starts any exam. She actually knows me and remembers me and my issues. Additionally I am very active, and she is great at giving advice on how to handle aches and pains resulting from sports and other athletic endeavors. I have recommended her to many friends.

Positive Interaction
From the moment I entered the ofc thru the end of my appt., everyone was courteous & friendly. Dr. Sivakumar was wonderful! This was my initial visit w/her. She spent an inordinate amt of time talking w/me. She focused on what I was saying and asked questions seeking further clarity on varied concerns. She welcomed me to the practice and stated we, together, would seek answers and/remedies to my concerns. She gave me printed material regarding a diagnosis; she modeled an exercise to perform & had me to perform it to ensure I was correctly performing it; and she discussed w/me a plan of action in maximizing & stabilizing my health. Her interaction was positive, warm & friendly! She exhibited a stellar level of professionalism in addition to recognizing my fears & vulnerability. She didn’t hesitate to show empathy to my story.
