I have had the good fortune to have been referred to Dr. Kankanala when I moved back to Texas a few years ago, and I remain impressed with each visit. Not only is Dr. Kankanala clinically impressive with knowledge and experienceShow more -- he is a rare doctor who really cares about your total well being and is patient enough to listen to your concerns, experiences, and lifestyle. As a result a patient feels that there is a true relationship and that the empathy is real; you are a patient but you are not just a case to quickly address and move on the next appointment. The medical profession has changed in the past decade, but Dr. Kankanala is the internist you want by your side (even if you are transitioning from a healthy adult to end of life). We are truly blessed to have such a compassionate, kind person to guide us with our health needs whether they are complex or simple at this particular point in our lives. We should all be grateful.
Dr. Kankanala is an outstanding internal medicine physician. He is knowledgeable, compassionate, and takes the time to listen to my concerns. He explains diagnoses and treatment options in a way that is easy to understand and neveShow morer makes me feel rushed during appointments. His thoroughness and attention to detail give me great confidence in the care I receive. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an excellent primary care physician.
