Beware of several things before scheduling an appointment, if not you might end up wasting your time making a trip to his office. REMEMBER, what happens in any doctor's office is 100% dictated by the doctor. The help is only following directions of the doctor. _________________________________________________ 1) You will be playing "phone tag" with his reps. 2) Once contact is made you will not be able to complete your registration questionnaire online or via a portal - you will need to do it in the office (20th century practice). I believe - this is not accidental as it perpetuates the insurance coverage confusion. 3) Dr. Dasari does not accept secondary insurance along with your primary insurance. He only accepts supplementary insurance with your primary insurance. This is not disclosed on the website. 4) Be 100% sure what type of insurance(s) and coverage you have -get with his office manager before you waste time making & going to an appointment. The last thing you need is finding out your insurance(s) are not accepted by his office. 5) The reps who you will be "playing phone tag" with are either not up to speed with insurance coverage details or are not willing to disclose them. Remember, they are really people who are there to close the deal (sales people). They only do what the doctor instructs them to do. Bottom line: When a doctor only accepts Supplementary Insurance they end up with more $ in their pocket and the patient ends up with more out of their pocket (expenses). *My suggestion: move on to a doctor who clearly advertises the insurance they accept. Suggestion, find one who accepts secondary coverage insurance with your primary coverage insurance. read more

This guy is a SCAMMER!!! I had a call with him, he told me what he thought I wanted to hear then tried to charge me $6,800 to "enroll in a program". Didn't send any info about the program, just the charge link ofcourse. So I looked into it further, his accounts are all bs. He posts vague YouTube videos with fake testimonials. His Facebook looked weird, his Instagram is the same. And notice there are no Google reviews!!! Stay far away from this guy!!!! And report him to the cops if you're in his area!!! read more

Best surgeon ever!! So happy I was referred to him by my primary physician. He truly cares and makes everything read more

Dr Dasari is a lovely man and he was great, we trusted him, but his office staff ran us out. Everything he told us he wanted to do.The office staff did their best to oppose. He wanted to do surgery right away seeing the agony my husband was in. I took days off and said give me a list of things to do... The office manager Sent me on wild goose chases. This is the only Doctor's office that I've been to in ten years that hasn't had access to a hospital records. Each piece Of paper that got per her request, she said wasn't enough. After a month, She actually said "the Reason the doctor has such a good reputation is because we don't take high risk patients." We never hid a single thing about his health from anybody... She accused my husband of lying to me about pain. She said that she asked him if he had pain and he said no... This Man vomits every morning.. He can barely walk, Doctor Dasari was concerned enough to want him in that same week for surgery. She did everything she could to prevent that. She is running him out of business. He needs to stop being cheap.Hire a decent staff and get access to medical record so people in agony don't have to look for ancient records at 10 different places. The whole thing was a huge disappointment.. My husband is so sick and we have no date for surgery and are starting over again. Also we wanted to talk to the doctor and they refused to give him a message. They said we had to make another appointment Where they collect $60 copay (our insurance is only $30 for this type of visit). Right now I challenge doctor dossery to call me... Amy O'Brien 702-622-2944. Because I cannot get through the front desk person. Also she thinks she's a doctor... She questioned me On things on the stress test as if I were lying... I'm a math teacher people.. I'm not a doctor. But guess who also is not a doctor... her. Also why would I lie about anything... read more

The doctor himself is great, but the person at the front desk is terrible. I spent a whole month playing phone tag with my insurance just to see dr dasari because he's one of the few people I can find who will do this surgery, and after three months of appointments I'm finally getting ready to schedule and after waiting for half an hour to schedule, I finally get to the front desk and she had the date and everything and she canceled the whole thing last second because she said there had to be a two year grace period between surgeries, when they already knew I had surgery 8 months ago and he already said he'd do it. If so why didn't you say that three months prior! I wasted three months at this place for no reason. read more

This Dr is full of it in 2018 went to ER for a umbilical hernia. This Dr did the surgery but rather then do the mesh wanted to do HIS amazing new way to treat it which was sutures. Then told him after the surgery he would not prescribe pain medication after an invasive surgery and he that needed to smoke week. My husband can't smoke due to his work and explained that and the Dr still would t do anything. Now ever since the surgery my husband wakes up every morning in pain and if you feel in his belly button you can feel the sutures! read more

Already a nightmare, taking my care somewhere else. Would have loved to be able to book an appointment, but Jesus, the man who answers the phone not only sounds extremely unqualified but has proven to be useless. You can not speak to anyone else but him. If you ask him a question he sounds, unintelligent, unconfident, and confused. Dasari, I would have loved to be able to meet you, however when the first point of contact is this incompetent it makes you wonder about the quality of care. Booking an appointment is an absolute nightmare. Red flags going off. I'll find a more qualified office to take care of me. Get better office staff, they are the face of your business. read more

BEWARE! This doctor is a scammer! He wanted to put me under anesthesia to remove a cyst that he never even looked at or examined. They wanted me to pay a deposit and told me that they had authorized it with my insurance. I called my insurance and they could not verify if he was even a real doctor. I ended up finding a credible doctor that numbed the area and removed the cyst for 8% of the cost that Dr. Dasari was going to charge me. I told a co-worker about the situation and found out that he had permanently scarred her and almost killed her from a severe infection. Also, all of the reviews that mention how bad the office staff is... Are completely true. I found it very odd that his office is only him and one of his family members running the front desk. No nurses... Very odd. Even his website is suspicious. Stay far away from this scammer! read more

The most unprofessional Dr and staff. The worst place you could go to. You'll get ripped off! Stay away. And keep searching! You'll fine a better surgeon with a decent price for the service and great results! There's tons of great surgeons in LV. And honest ones at that. Just stay away from this place! Trust me! read more

Dr Dasari is the coolest doctor I have ever met. Most surgeons are kinda like full of themselves and cold hearted. He is the exact opposite. He was jovial and completely informative. His office staff helped me get my surgery done in the nick of time. They saved my guts, literally. It's been awhile since I had the double hernia fixed and I can say from experience that he does great work because if it was going to rupture again it would have by now. I am so grateful and thankful to have had the opportunity to be his patient. Thank you Doc, you guys are awesome! read more

Well, everything that has been mentioned beforehand about this practice I found to be true. I know the front office has been given atrocious reviews and I thought I could be the exception. I'm a nice guy and get along with all kinds of people, friendly or mean. Unfortunately, this doctor's "mother" that runs the front desk is running his reputation into the ground. Yes, she attempted to fleece me out of fees that were not warranted, that a less savvy senior would not catch on to. When I balked at her insistence that I pay a deductible that I did not owe, she told me to go to another provider instead. She wasted my time and set-back my plans and scheduling for surgery. I plan to sue this practice and also initiate Medicare fraud charges against them. From all that I have read, this is not an isolated case, nor a simple mistake. This appears to be a systematic abuse of our health care system and it needs to be addressed and sanctioned. I plan to lead that effort to make sure justice is served and other seniors are protected from these types of billing scam abuses. read more

Never got to meet the doctor. Couldn't even get an appointment. Our primary sent the referral to them 3 weeks ago. Initially the office told us that they do accept our insurance, BCBS. My husband has had to consistently call the office to follow up and they kept saying that they couldn't verify his insurance. After 3 weeks and numerous phone calls they finally tell my husband that they don't accept our insurance. We look up the network providers for our plan and low and behold this doctor is indeed a participating provider in our network! Their website also indicates that they accept our insurance!! The office staff has assisted only in delaying my husband's much needed treatment, wasting 3 weeks of time all the while he is suffering and in pain. This doctor came highly recommended but unfortunately his staff gets zero stars for their incompetency and horrible customer service. read more

We went in for an appointment and the front office lady said there was a $100 co-pay. We are fully paid on our deductible and we called insurance and they said they would have to refund us since we do not owe anything on our deductible. The lady at the desk said to go find another provider, she refused service even though we had proof that we were paid in full with our insurance. Doctor's offices these days don't have any care for the patient, only lining their own pockets. We never actually got to see the doctor, so maybe he's a good doctor, but unfortunately we didn't get the privilege. After meeting the front office, we wouldn't want to be treated there anyway. Found out his mother is the office manager and the front office clerk. To his mom: Why would you want to ruin your son's business? This isn't your first bad review, why be so hateful and rude! Nobody wants to deal with you. read more

I was able to get in and see Dr. Dasari for a Hernia repair and my experience with HIM was phenomenal. HOWEVER, his mother who is the front desk was incredibly rude, disrespectful and inept. She called me a week prior to my procedure, yelling at me because I did not provide my social security number on the new patient paperwork. I explained to her that she already has a copy of my insurance and photo ID and providing my social is optional, she went on to continue yelling at me saying she was already 2 days behind on her work and pretty much wasn't going to deal with me so she was rescheduling my procedure for next month. I then asked to speak with the Dr, and she refused, saying I didn't have to speak with anyone else. My fiancé then went to the office to try to sort out the situation (He is an authorized person on my HIPAA paperwork) and she would not even let him enter the office. Instead she kept yelling saying the patient had to be present and would not let him speak or allow him to explain that she is in fact, able to discuss my medical information with him. She is sadly ruining the Dr,'s practice and reputation and needs to GO! Dr. Dasari, if you see this.... Please look into replacing the lady in the front, she is detrimental to your practice and will destroy your entire reputation. Treating your patients the way she does is absolutely unacceptable. read more

I recently had my GB removed. Dr. Dasari was excellent. He is very knowledgeable and friendly. I definitely recommend him.

Dr Dasari is FAN-TAS-TIC. I recently had a bi-lateral inguinal hernia surgery, almost unheard of for a female, and the surgery and recovery went great. Dr. Dasari is very personable, takes his time explaining EVERYTHING, doesn't rush your appointment and was very patient with my endless questions. I'm so glad my primary referred me to him. Mom Dasari in the front office is great. The woman knows her stuff, she'll guide you through the paperwork, what to do before and after surgery.... listen to her. She's on top of everything. Hopefully, I'll never need surgery again for anything, but if I do I'll be going back to Dr. D. Thank you for your expertise! read more

Excellent service, amazing staff. Glad I picked Dr Dasari as my surgeon for my hernia repair. This was my first surgery I've ever had. He answered all my questions and put my mind at ease. He is the best! read more

My husband was trying to have hernia surgery last year. He was scheduled, but he got covid and had to cancel (postpone) the proceedure. When he got better, he returned to the office and was asked to get a cardiac clearance. He went for the screening at a cost of over $1,000 out of pocket. He was cleared by the cardiologist and tried to schedule an appointment for the needed surgery. He was told that the Doctor wouldn't be scheduling any surgeries for the rest of the year and that the soonest he could get in for an appointment was 1/31/25. He waited the three months, went to his appointment and saw the doctor who told him his heart was good for at least 10 years. Dr. Dasari told my husband to schedule the surgery with his front desk. (His Mom) After waiting the better part of an hour, he was told that his cardiac clearance was too old and that he would have to retake all of the screening tests. He got mad and just walked out. Since reading these reviews, I looked at the bills I paid last year. I remember receiving a bill and paying $298 to Dr. Dasari. This was the total amount that was billed to medicare for the office visit. I just looked at my records and I don't find the payment anywhere. Perhaps the check was never cashed? I am not sure. My husband and I both agree with the other reviewers that Dr. Dasari is great. His front office is broken. He is letting his Mom ruin his practice! read more

I was told they took my insurance and I even double checked my insurance app. After driving 45 minutes to Dr Dasari's office I was told they will not take my insurance because they have had situations where they do not pay but I can pay out of pocket and if they get paid they will give me my money back. I called the insurance company while still in the office and they tried to tell them they were in network and would be paid. She refused to listen and kept talking about prior authorization which I asked her to get from my insurance provider but she refused. I just want others to be aware that dealing with insurance seems to be too much work for this office and I really can't rate the doctor but since his staff is so uncaring maybe it is a reflection of his work as well. read more

The best! He's been so pleasant and friendly. Took his time answering mine and my hubby's concerns on my current situation. Highly recommended. Thank you Dr Dasari! read more

I had hernia surgery performed on me in June of 2022. The surgery was very successful and the discomfort I was experiencing is completely gone. Dr Dasari was very professional and patient in explaining to me all of the aspects of my hernia and the expected results after the surgical procedure. I am extremely satisfied and grateful for the referral I received from Dr Ricardo Velazquez and I highly recommend Dr Dasari. read more

I am three weeks post op from having Dr Dasari perform bilateral inguinal hernia surgery. While I do not normally do reviews I must express my thanks to Dr Dasari and his entire team for their exceptional care. Dr Dasari and his core team of his scheduler/office manager were positive, supportive and on point at all times from the initial appointment through the surgery and the post op appointment. I also had to utilize his answering service several times pre and post op and again, it was a positive experience w them always getting back to me in a very timely manner. Thank you Dr Dasari, I greatly appreciate the excellence of care provided by you and your staff. read more

I concur with all complaints about the office staff. In particular, the doctor's mother who runs the front office and handles all the billing. She collected an upfront deposit from me for my consultation, even tho I had met my deductible. I was hesitant to pay it, but she assured me it would be credited back once my insurance company processed the claim. Well, that never happened and all she wanted to do was blame my insurance company even tho they are an in-network provider. I'm still trying to get my deposit back and my insurance company is still trying to get them to cooperate. The only other person you'll deal with is Jesus, but he's not much help. As for Dr. Dasari, I hear that he is a good surgeon, but I didn't feel that comfortable with him during our consultation. I ended up cancelling our follow up appointment and eventually went elsewhere. I held out longer than I should have as I thought the billing issue would be resolved. Would not recommend them. read more

I've had my share of operations and Dr visits not many Dr's take the time to talk to you or answer your questions and concerns.My experience with Dr Dasari has been one in a million I was diagnosed with colon cancer on August 10th called his office and they were able to schedule me in that Friday that same day he scheduled me for surgery on the 30th he answered all my concerns made me feel so comfortable and safe less than a month I was recovering with minimal pain and scaring truly a great Surgeon HIGHLY RECOMMENDED him Thank you Dr Dasari may God always bless and guide your hands in every procedure read more

I have been trying to get in to see Dr. Dasari for a month now. The woman at the front desk refuses to book an appt for me even though I have great insurance. I heard that she is Dr. Dasari's mother, but she seems to really be ruining his practice and his reputation. read more

Office is not organized at all. My husband had surgery in January and we are still trying to get our refund from our deposit 6 months later. They keep telling us next week, but we've been hearing that for months. We are owed over $700. It's unfortunate that the office is so disorganized because we had a great experience with Dr. Dasari himself. Unfortunately, his office manager is his mom, so I'm not sure he's willing to hear that she actually isn't doing a great job. Great surgeon but you have to have a massive amount of patience and perseverance to get anything else done. Highly recommend the Dr, but up to you if handling the office staff is worth it. read more

I researched for months, trying to find the best option for inguinal hernia surgery. Many times, offices were only interested in insurance coverage options. It's a stressful situation enough. One day, I decided to comb through every Dr in the field. Dr. Dasari was easily the most positive. Once I was able to get into his office, it only took 3 weeks to have the procedure. 10 days after that, I feel like my health has been renewed! I found out later that Dr. Dasari had the kindness to pray for my recovery! His 1st objective is the patient's health!! Dr. Dasari took me through every possible scenario. He even suggested that I wait until completely confident of my choice! Forever grateful! You've found the best option for hernia surgery in Las Vegas!! Look no further. Follow protocol and find better health! You will be satisfied. Thanks to the entire staff for guiding me through each step of the process! God bless you all!! read more

A very mean woman runs the office, and she is very rude and disrespectful to the patients. Looking at other reviews I believe it is the Dr's mother. If she doesn't like you for whatever reason, she will not allow you to make an appointment no matter how great your insurance is. Another young man answers the phone, and although he isn't rude, he doesn't seem to know anything about making appointments and he has to ask her for everything. I don't even think Dr. Dasari knows how poorly his patients are being treated by the front desk lady. It is very disheartening and sad to think that even though there are tons of complaints about this woman, she continues to be the face of this establishment. read more

Dr. Chanu Dasari performed a umbilical hernia surgery for me. i was totally impressed by his skills as a surgeon. i have had a hernia surgery before and was butchered by some doctor in Arizona leaving 2 huge scars on my abdomen. Dr. Chanu Dasari told me the way he would have done it with very little scaring. i wish i would have know him sooner. Shame i can't give him 10 stars. read more

Chanu Dasari, MD - Surgeons Near Me - Henderson, Nevada

I recently had Dr. Dasari for double hernia surgery. I was referred to him by my primary care doc. He is very personable, has a good sense of humor and doesn't rush through the appointment. He has earned his reputation by doing hundreds of such operations a year. He is sensitive and empathetic with patient fears and issues. I feel I am in good hands with him. He also speaks Spanish. Things at the front desk seem rather casual, but they do get the job done. Strongly recommended! read more

I was hesitant on getting the cyst removed from my forehead as it is in such a sensitive area and on my forehead, but I was confident dr Dasari could get it done and he did such an amazing job. I am so pleased with his work!! I recommend him! The incision is so professional and is healing perfectly! Also everyone in his office is very kind and helpful. Thank you Dr. Dasari read more

Professionalism - Honesty - Compassion - Truthful - Engaged. All words that you want your DR to know and adhere to. Dr Dasari is just that individual. I spent countless hours and appointments trying to figure out what my issue was and Dr Dasari figured it out with 30 seconds of being examined. He identified my annoying umbilical hernia and then went through the process of explaining how he could fix it if I wanted to. Not that I had to, or it needed to be done right away, he put me in control. After some time I decide to get it fixed and I couldn't be happier. There wasn't really pain after the surgery, there was some discomfort of course but I never really felt pain. Dr Dasari answered every single question I had, addressed every concern I had, gave me an honest answer and set my expectations accordingly. I honestly put more time into thinking about getting the surgery than it took to get it resolved and recovered. I highly recommend Dr Dasari and his team. read more

He is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and takes the time to listen to your every concern. He makes you feel comfortable knowing that you are in the best hands. I had to have hernia surgery and I couldn't be happier with the results. If you are looking for a phenomenal doctor and surgeon look no further. read more

Dr. Dasari is a young, skilled surgeon. He is personable, knowledgeable and runs a great office. Parma, at the front desk, set me up for my gallbladder surgery, gave me instructions, and was helpful afterwards. The surgery center is accommodating and the anesthesiologist is top-notch. I had reservations about the procedure but had no proble read more

The most friendliest and welcoming Doctor and staff I have came across! Dr. dasari is extremely knowledgeable and an incredible surgeon. I would highly recommend using his services! read more

I called to try and schedule a consultation online consultation and records review like the website says for out of state patients. The person I spoke to was EXTREMELY rude, and refused to let me speak to anyone else. I was told that I had to fly across the country for my first visit, even though it says a virtual consultation will be scheduled to make sure it's something he can treat. They adamantly stated that it had to be in person, they didn't care if I flew across the country just to find out that he doesn't treat my condition. They also asked why I couldn't just find a Dr in PA. I specifically sought him out because of his expertise and apparently travelling to see a specialist that can handle complex medical needs is a bad thing. I'd love to see the Dr but the staff was so nasty. Do they act that way once you've become a patient because if so beware! So much for seeking out the top specialist read more

I was referred to Dr. Dasari by my primary doctor as his only recommendation. I sure was glad I didn't have any other choices since my Consultation, Surgery and Follow Up visit couldn't have gone any better thanks to Dr. Dasari! read more

The Doctor himself is amazing but the lady in the front needs to be replaced. I was not the only one in the office complaining about the exact same thing, a pilot was in the exact same position as myself and walked out due to how unprofessional she is. He also cannot return to work because he also needs the same letter my son needs. Literally stating after surgery he can return to work that is the only thing that can be stated on the letter. My son was seen 2 years ago and was cleared to go back to work which she gave us something stating that but it was on the same paper regarding his surgery it was denied. My son is trying to enlist in the Airforce and can't do to this without this letter of release which was given to him after surgery and we requested a copy and again denied as she repeats she gave it to us two years ago. You state you no longer have the letter again she stated she gave it to us, this goes on and on. She does not listen to the patient. Repeats things over and over even though you have said exactly what you need, she completely disregards it. You ask to speak to the doctor for clarification and she refuses. This is the most unprofessional Doctors office I've seen and I have two other sons that are special needs. It is the most ridiculous thing I've seen and literally two patients with the exact same issue should raise concerns for the doctor as it is a direct reflection of him. The pilot said she is the only reason he would not allow the doctor operate on him due to her unprofessional conduct. Again I will state the doctor is amazing but she will be the reason he doesn't do well. read more

Just recently had an episacral lipoma removed from my lower right back. Dr. Dasari was outstanding throughout. Very reassuring before the operation. Smooth operation itself, only taking about 30 minutes. Extremely minimal incision for a big piece of fat coming out. And post-op, very comforting and detailed in post-op instruction. His staff is superb! ESPECIALLY, his mom Padma! She was very clear and direct with billing, food recommendations for speedy recovery, and overall, just what could be expected with the procedure. 110% for Dr. Dasari and staff! read more
