Dr. D. Pragati Rao

I instantly liked Dr Pragati Rao. She was pleasant, wise, and empathetic. In diagnostics, she exhibited a degree of healthy skepticism that I found refreshing. She refused to decide on gut feelings or hearsay. She wanted proof. Even after I tested positive on my Quantiferrin TB test, she was not completely convinced. She spoke to my dermatologist to make sure vasculitis could be ruled out, to whatever extent possible. A rare demonstration of patience, rigor, and collaborativeness. She is also very warm and considerate, pre-empting patient confusion with additional information. On the whole, it is very refreshing to meet such a doctor in today's world of indiscriminate testing and obscure communication. Highly recommended.
