Kulkarni Videsha MD

The office and office staff are great. Dr Kulkarni is timely., patient and thorough . She does not seem to rush you out for the next appt... which seems the way these days. Highly recommend

Dr. Kulkarni is the least empathetic doctor I've ever encountered. I visited her following multiple hospital visits with more than enough information that she completely ignored during my visit with her. My symptoms led me to be unable to work, and when asked to fill out forms for my leave, she marked me as being able to work after I sobbed in her office about what I had gone through. She lacks compassion and does not care for the overall wellbeing of her patients. If you want real care, you'll have much better luck at even an urgent care. Horrible final experience after years of seeing her for normal checkups. Her inability to put feelings aside to care for her patients is harmful and disturbing as a primary care physician. Will never be seeing her again.

I saw Dr. Kulkarni once about 4 years ago. While she had come highly recommended, she ultimately damaged my view of doctors and has left me scared to seek proper medical care. I saw her for a regular check-up, and brought with me a sheet of paper with 3-5 questions on it. We spent no more than 15 minutes going over my questions, and honestly her responses weren't even that helpful (mostly just "keep doing what you're already doing"). She then billed me for an additional "outpatient visit", that wasn't covered by my insurance, because it was billed separately from the check-up. When I called to ask what that outpatient visit was for, the receptionist told me it was because I had asked additional questions. Now, I don't know if her practice at the time forced her to code things this way, but either way, I found it extremely unethical. Years later I still worry about asking too many questions during doctors visits out of fear I'll be billed for additional services. It's taken me a long time to recognize that asking questions of your doctor is IMPORTANT, and you shouldn't be billed EXTRA for that. I have never returned to Dr. Kulkarni or her practice after this.

Dr Kulkarni is an amazing doctor. She takes the time to discuss your physical and mental health at your annual physical. She tried to address the problem and not the symptoms. She promotes a healthy lifestyle. I highly recommend Dr K.

I love Dr. Kulkarni! Such a great doctor, so calming and knows her patients so well :) Highly recommend.
