I have been seeing Dr. Viswanathan for the past three years, and I could not ask for a better nephrologist. He is not only incredibly knowledgeable and thorough in his care, but also one of the kindest and most compassionate doctors I have ever met. He always takes the time to listen, explain things clearly, and treat me as a person, not just a patient. His genuine care and steady support have made a real difference in my health and peace of mind. I am truly grateful to have him as my nephrologist.
