Sisira Reddy's Online Review Report Card

I felt like I was almost dead , could barely walk, no energy, severe swelling and joint pain. After 6 or 7 long years of suffering from severe swelling and joint damage, Dr. Reddy actually read my chart and medications. She made a change in my medications that had such a positive impact on my life. I am back in the gym working out and running on the treadmill. She gave me back my life, vitality and mobility.

Dr. Reddy is knowledgeable, competent, and compassionate. I feel reassured that she is looking out for my best interests medically and otherwise. Great rheumatologist!

I was a pt of Dr Fishman till he retired, then Dr Lin who left the practice, then Dr Reddy who I saw once. She refuses to do pain mgmt and released me to a pain clinic which I understood.I asked if she would refill my meds one more time in March if I were running out before my visit to the pain clinic as I am not allowed to abruptly stop them and she said, “Of course”. Yet today I was informed that my refill request was rejected, even though a note was included reminding her of what she had said.I believe she didn’t read the note, saw she was no longer seeing me and just sent the rejection.She is an extremely young and inexperienced doctor who is not considering how her quick and uninformed decisions may affect her patient.I found her to be arrogant and dismissive and, after what happened today, it is clear to me that she doesn’t care about released patients.I have dealt with tremendous pain for a very long time and feel discouraged.If you are seeking a caring doctor look elsewhere.

Dr. Sisira Reddy, Is a tiger when it comes to getting what her patients need. I was rejected by my insurance company for a biologic medication for Ankylosing Spondylitis. Dr. Reddy went take no for an answer and got me into a special program for two years until insurance catches up with current research. She fought hard for me to get me into this program. That is unusual for this day and time. Please see her for your Rheumatical problems. She will be with you step by step.

While Dr. Sisira Reddy may have top notch clinical skills having recently been licensed, her dismissive communication skills, defensiveness, lack of bedside manner, and zero follow up for patients in pain is entirely unacceptable and truly uncovers her immaturity as a physician. Her lack of experience as a doctor has been evident since our first meeting. I had to chase someone down at the practice for lab results, a continuity plan, and to call in medicine that should have been done. I had a terribly flare over the weekend due to my meds not being available at the pharmacy, which was entirely avoidable with physician follow through!

Dr. Reddy has been my Rheumatologist now for one year. As an overall appraisal, she is truly an excellent physician. I had originally gone to her for a second opinion on my arthritis diagnosis. As it turned out, the previous doctor had misdiagnosed. And more importantly, Dr. Reddy proceeded with a medical regiment that was both pragmatic and cautious. Under her continued care, she made clear and reasonable judgments in terms of choices of medication, explaining everything clearly to include potential side effects and proper monitoring. Approximately 6 months ago, she offered a change in medication that has made an incredible difference in my quality of life. Again, this change was done with pragmatism and caution. Her sound medical judgment has made a significant improvement in my daily comfort and ability to return to physical tasks that had become an impediment. Last, her skill at patient interaction (the proverbial 'bedside manner') is clearly kind and empathetic.

Dr. Reddy is a partner in my health and treatment of my RA. She listens and provides an atmosphere of trust. I have no doubt she is in my corner and wanting me to feel my best and pain free.

I am truly thankful I am seeing Dr. Sisira for my chronic pain. 6 months ago when I went in not knowing where all the pain was coming from, she took her time to listen to me and explained to me all the options I had as for the medications. Dr. Sisira gave me the trust and she is amazing at making sure her patients feel important. She is the best! :D I will continue working with her and definitely will recommend her to friends and family. God Bless her !

I call her my cardi b. She's awesome. I'm young but I'm sick and she doesnt make me feel old and weak. She helps give me confidence. I am thankful for her. Didnt know she was in practice for only 2 years. Still I think she can handle my treatment plan.

Have you ever tried to talk to your doctor, to explain your condition and just knew that they weren't really listening ? Imagine the exact opposite of this. THAT is Dr. Reddy. The best way I know to describe her medical demeanor is big sister (her) to younger sibling (patient). My mom and dad were great parents, but there is this different "spark," or dynamic with Dr. Reddy." that is more youthful, more "us against the world," that distinguishes her from almost all others.
