I do not recommend. Office staff and Psychiatrist Dr. M Naidu are unprofessional. Their virtual…read moresystem is confusing and unreliable. Their website doesn't reflect the correct open time of 8am when she starts seeing patients. Office doesnt start answering calls till 9am. Inconsistent and confusing. Dr. Virtual Appointment was scheduled at 12:45p. I received first link at 12:59. 2nd link at 1p. I joined at 1p using the 2nd link. I was put into the virtual waiting room. She never joined, then I received a 3rd link at 1:26. So I dropped from the 2nd link and I joined that 3rd link and sat in the virtual waiting room for over 30 minutes and she never showed up. When I called they said I would be charged a cancellation fee. They said they were calling me , that I should have answered so they could let me know they were sending me new links. I didn't look at incoming calls while already on a virtual call with them. I had already seen links and was already in the virtual waiting room/s and had joined the 2nd and 3rd links when they came in. Then I rescheduled for an in person (2nd visit). My appointment was scheduled at 8:45am. I never got a reminder message. So I called at 8:07am to confirm and I got the message saying the office is now closed. So I go to website which states their hours of operation start at 9am (still states this). So I thought maybe they just asked me to be there 15 minutes before appointment start time. I got there at 8:50am. The doctor saw me and said I would have to schedule another appointment to have form filled out and refused to do it at that appointment because I was according to them "late": After I left, I noticed her office left me messages at 8:48am and 8:49 telling me I was going to be charged a cancellation fee. I told her I called at 8:07am. She told me I didn't call because her office staff picks up. So I showed her my phone and the outgoing call to her office. So I had to schedule a 3rd appointment at 8am on a 3rd day. When I was in her office I called her office I put it on speaker at 8:06am and I got message office was closed. She said she didn't want to talk about the cancellations and missed appointments. She said her office opens at 9am like the website says and the phones don't get turned on until 9 but makes appointments starting at 8am. They don't care about patients or the patient experience with their virtual system and confusion of office hours conflicting with what website says (9am) but they start seeing patients at 8a. They unfairly charge cancellation fees for missed appointments they never showed up to. Make you schedule extra appointments. They are full of double standards. Tell me to pick up when they call but their phones are not available at 8am when she starts seeing patients. They call leaving messages saying they are going to charge cancellation fees 3 and 4 minutes after your visit appointment start time yet she is always 15-30 minutes late. Their website does not reflect her office hours that start at 8am but her staff doesn't turn off , office is now closed until 9am. When I tried sharing my concerns and where confusion was coming from, she spoke over me. Did not feel heard at all.

I also received a $50 no show charge for an appointment that I had cancelled 5 days prior to the…read moreappointment. Nonsense.
