Ms. Yadala listens and cares about her patients. She cares about the patient's needs and wants and not what she wants to do. And that goes a long way with me and I'm sure with other patients. And I'm very glad that I have her.

Since there is a 3hr travel for me, The video calls makes it easier on me. I do make sure that my primary care dr keeps up with all that goes on with me. She then reports to my neurologist.
