I had an amazing experience at Dr Rao’s office. I was slightly nervous while walking in but everyone from the lady at the front desk to the nurse to Dr Rao herself made me feel welcome and ‘warm’ in their office. Their professionalism impressed me in every way. The office even followed up with me to ensure that I was feeling better. I would hope that none of my friends and family are in a situation where they need to visit a doctor. But if they do, I would gladly recommend Prima Medicine to them!

Dr.Chethana Rao is very knowledgeable, affable and compassionate. She explains the things in detail which is very helpful for a layman like me. She proactively looks up the patient profile to advice on medicines currently being taken. She and her staff are always responsive and turn around quickly on prescriptions, advice and appointments when in need.

I am with Prima medicine for the past 3 years. Before that I was with a practice where practically I saw a different doctor in every visit and I had to answer the same question and explain everything to them over and over again. Also I was medicated unnecessarily. But now Dr. Chethana Rao, the Nurse practitioners are very efficient and helpful. Dr. Rao stopped those medications which were causing multiple side effects for no reason. I am very happy with the care I get from Dr. Rao and her staff.

I had been looking for a new doctor when someone recommended Dr. Rao and I couldn't be happier now. The office is modern, the staff is friendly and Dr. Rao herself is very kind and patient. You can tell that she loves what she does and putting her patients at ease is a natural result. My husband and I are so glad to have found Prima Medicine as our regular doctor office.
