Venkata Devabhaktuni's Online Review Report Card

Called to make an appt and the number was no longer in service, apparently neither is he. From what I understand he no longer practices in the state of Alabama. It would have been nice to inform your patients!! I find this very unprofessional and disturbing leaving psychiatric patients struggling to find a new doctor with no notice !!

He is always very concerned. Listens well. Does some psychotherapy as well. Pays attention sincerely to concerns of the patient. Never had any problem with office staff, especially office manager. They are very efficient in their jobs. Kind, friendly and caring. I think what people don't understand is that they run a medical office and there are rules and procedures. I love all of them. D.R.

I love Dr. Dev. I've had various success with depression meds for decades. Dr .Dev revised my diagnosis and med plan and completely changed my life. Love, love, love him.

Dr. Dev has always been respectful, honest, and caring about any of my concerns.

Awful Rude staff!

He used to be good, but has gone downhill. Office staff is ineffective and he is often late. If you really need help, try looking somewhere else.

This "physician" took no interest in some dangerous side effects of a medication he prescribed and was dismissive of my concerns. It was obvious that he was totally uncaring.

Love this doctor, always listens and cares. Has great employees who are kind and helpful. Been seeing him about 3 years and would definitely recommend him.

I have 2 issues, I was a patient of his right after my Mom died. He didn’t have time for me to talk through my feelings just handed me a fist full of nerve pills and it was next. My husband had a heart attack over a month ago. He saw him while he was in Health South. The discharge papers said to call his office and make an appointment in 1-2 weeks. When I called they told me he wasn’t excepting new patients. If he isn’t taking new patients he shouldn’t go to the hospital or rehab center to collect the BCBS if he can’t make his follow up appointments

Very kind and interested in you. Takes time to listen .Very helpful. I would recommend him highly.

Dr Dev cut off our Dr/patient relationship because I could not make 2 appointments due to loss of job & insurance. Meds also cut off when I need them most.

The receptionist was very rude and she hung up on me. The doctor may be good, but with such a horrible and rude support person, I will not recommend him to anyone. They need to replace this receptionist. Never hang up on your customers!

The receptionist hung up on me because I asked for an appt and evidently they do not take new patients now. But instead of hearing me out, she hung up on me! The doctor may be good, but he is only as good as his support staff. Very rude!

I have been using Dr. Devabhaktuni for at least 20 years or more, and he is fantastic! I would definitely recommend him to everyone... I was abused by my mother until I left home, and then was mentally and physically abused by my husband for 40 years until he walked out on me... so yes! I feel fine today, thanks to Dr. Dev! He SHOULD be rated in the top 5 star category. Today, I lead a normal life, thanks to him! He's one of Huntsville's BEST doctors!

Although very quiet he takes time to listen to what is happening in your life and about any complications you may be experiencing with medication.

I have been a patient of Dr, Dev for little over 2 years. He is the best psychiatrist I have seen. He has helped me tremendously and takes time to listen to me! His staff is always nice and very helpful if I need to reschedule in the given time. I highly recommend Dr. Dev to anyone!!!!!!!

Dr Dev is a GREAT Doctor. I've never had a Doctor spend so much time with me. The staff is always nice and professional but a little strict on policies. Dr Dev also shows more emotion then any other Doctor I've seen before, if he feels you have been treated unfairly by another Doctor or staff, he does appear to be really upset which makes me feel as though he really does care about his patients.

I like Dr. Dev. I am changing simply to work in a family therapy situation with a different doc that my family is established with. But I appreciate Dr. Dev and how he has helped me fight depression. He listens to me and makes good suggestions. Thank you, Dr. Dev.

Excellent Dr.

Dr. Dev is an amazing doctor. I am so grateful for him. I was severely depressed for 6 months. It was awful. In the beginning we worked through my issues. He would spend 45 min with me if he had too. I had to go him every week for about 2 months because the depression was so bad. He never complained.. He was there to help me get better. We tried a lot of different medicine. He never gave up on me. We finally found the right medicine and I am doing wonderful. I am out of the depression and I am back at work.
