Prima Medicine – South Riding Office

Excellent Experience. Dr Haritha Yalamanchilli is very caring, considerate, benevolent having in-depth knowledge and medical professional expertise and and immense patience to listen to the patient. She has incredible insight to diagnose and plan to treat the ailments. She deserves all accolades,she is the best physician .

Dr. Yalamanchilli is an excellent doctor who listens to patient concerns, thoroughly explains diagnosis and treatment options to ensure you feel comfortable and informed about your healthcare decisions. She is vested in patient well-being. However, the process to deal with insurance prescription pre-authorizations and appeals is less than ideal. An efficient system is needed to prevent delays in treatment as well as an understanding of the nuances around drug insurances companies to navigate the pre-auth and appeals processes, like dealing with a manager to discuss issue and asking for a special exception supported by documentation. Admin patient advocacy is critical to receive the right medication needed by the patient who knows what drugs have worked and what hasn't. It is an artform to navigate insurance companies and little time for medical practices manage insurance. After repeated requests from the pharmacy with no response from the practice for further information needed the medication was denied. I contacted my insurance and found it was simply the right form for the doctor to complete.

Great place

The staff took me in right away, no waiting. I saw NP Kelly Steward. She was so nice, friendly, & she understood my concerns. She suggested 2 OTC products that would help me, wrote them down for me & explained how they would help. I left feeling well taken care of & will definitely be back.

Convenient location, skilled nurse and professional, highly recommended for the choice 👍

The nurse practitioner Amanda was amazing! She went over all my blood work and recommended additional bloodwork to be taken. I did not feel rushed at all and walked out of the office feeling confident that I would be feeling better soon! Thank you, Amanda

All of the staff are very helpful and friendly.
