Sridar Chalaka

Dr. Chalaka greeted us warmly and listened intently to my wife tell the history of her breathing/pulmonary/low oxygen problems. He allowed her to elaborate in depth without interruptions, questions, etc. When she finished, he then began querying her about various issues to gain additional clarity. At that point, he reviewed a number of her medical documents to further understand the nature of her medical issues. Finally, Dr. Chalaka’s staff scheduled her for a follow-up appt. to conduct additional pulmonary tests. We were both very pleased with his attentive engagement, caring and concern, clear understanding of how her symptoms negatively impact her life, and the importance of finding a satisfactory resolution to her medical concerns.

Best doc ever would not trust anyone else with my sleep apnea! Deb in Everett patient 3 years

Great doctor, highly recommend. He treats my sleep apnea and asthma. Professional, knowledgeable and great bed-side manner.

He's the best

Nice guy, easy to talk to. Preconceived belief that I have sleep apnea, although all the questions indicate otherwise, Philips even said I was very low risk. NO worries, the notes indicated I had symptoms and complaints that I did not have, but would make a good case for insurance approval to spend more dollars. Total lack of trust and faith now. Does everyone who sees him end up diagnosed with sleep apnea?

Was in a hurry, explained to me that he was a "high producer" before any conversation on my sleep apnea test(?huh?). I was only 9AHI, which was not explained to me as "Mild Apnea". Moved on to prescribe the machine. When I contacted later slow to respond, when he did he told me my concerns were not related to the CPAP, despite headache, hard to sleep, and other I ask about being found all over the internet as CPAP issues...said he'd see me in a month at schedule appointment. I'm sure he's great, but I am not yet enchanted.

Really nice guy. good listener. BUT if you have anything else wrong with you besides sleep apnea, go somewhere else. not trained for problems beyond that.
