I went in with my daughter who was wheezing amd waking up with fevers. I explained all symptoms to Dr. Ariyawansa and she completely dismissed everything I said was wrong with my daughter. Not only that she asked me what she should prescribe my daughter because she is young for prescription medications. She checked her ears and told me she didnt have an ear infection. I took my daughter to her primary pediatric doctor and immediately saw she had a mild double ear infection. I told her she was wheezing and could not breathe and I asked her for a nebulizer because she had congestion on her chest and couldn't get it out. She told me a nebulizer was not necessary and was more for bronchial symptoms which she did not have. My daughter's primary pediatric doctor the very next day gave my daughter a nebulizer treatment in office before discharging her because when he listened to her chest he said her heart was beating fast and she had congestion in her lungs. All Dr. Ariyawansa said was my daughter had a sire throat and to rub vicks on her and run the humidifier. The appointment wasnt sitting right with me and I am happy I took her to original pediatric doctor because if it wasn't for him she would still be uncomfortable and sick.

she didn’t seem like she cared at all about my child and when I brought up a concern, she kind of just brushed it off with something simple so I went and got a second opinion, and there was actually something wrong with my child
-
Because she always listens to my concerns
-
Padma always takes her time with my children. Provides helpful information regarding treatment and care and I feel that she genuinely cares for my children and their well being.

We recently took our newborn son to Dr. Padma for his circumcision, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From the very beginning, Dr. Padma was professional, gentle, and incredibly patient in explaining the entire procedure to us. As new parents, we had many questions and concerns, but the doctor took the time to answer each one with kindness and reassurance. The procedure itself was quick, clean, and done with great care. Our baby was calm throughout, and the healing process went smoothly with no complications at all. Dr. also provided clear aftercare instructions and followed up to make sure everything was going well, which we truly appreciated. We’re so grateful for the skill, compassion, and professionalism shown by Dr. Padma and the entire team. We highly recommend them to any parents looking for a trustworthy and experienced doctor for their baby’s circumcision
