Sravanthi Parasa

“I was very impressed with the kn...”

I was very impressed with the knowledge of the provider and how quickly she was able to set up and appointment to further look into the concern that I came in for..

“Dr. P. Was patient as she listen...”

Dr. P. Was patient as she listened to my concerns. Her awareness of my historical and present list of medical concerns was remarkable. Her explanations and instructions were concise and simple to understand.

“I feel most assured with the car...”

I feel most assured with the care she is providing me

“30 minutes wait to see her. But ...”

30 minutes wait to see her. But otherwise everything was good.

“Dr.Parasa is truly the best!!...”

Dr.Parasa is truly the best!!

“Dr. Parasa has been my GI specia...”

Dr. Parasa has been my GI specialist for over two years and I feel fortunate having someone as supportive, educational and non judgmental involved in a critical part of my wellbeing. When I saw Dr Parasa a few weeks ago, I had been struggling more symptomatically than usual (even after trying alternative options). Given Dr. Parasa has worked with me long enough to "know my baseline," she recognized I was having a rough day, and automatically decided to listen and provide support vs only focusing on my GI symptoms/issues and not acknowledging my mental health concerns. There aren't many specialists I have seen/worked with who are as attuned to their patients mental health challenges (and actually talk about them) as Dr. Parasa. You can undoubtedly see how much Dr. Parasa truly and genuinely cares when she stops everything (related to her specialty) and takes time to address more concerning issues (mental health) since she can see it (mental health) being more important than the GI symptoms the patient has. Swedish won the lottery getting Dr. Parasa and I hope she stays for a long time!

“Dr. Parasa was thorough, thought...”

Dr. Parasa was thorough, thoughtful, and took the time to listen to my concerns. She explained things in a way that made sense and asked me if I had any other questions or concerns. She has fantastic bedside manners and is very knowledgeable. I have seen many GI doctors, and I can easily say I was impressed by my first visit with her.

“Everyone was very nice and helpf...”

Everyone was very nice and helpful

“Appointment seemed a little rush...”

Appointment seemed a little rushed with the provider, although her team was excellent.

“I wasn't able to select an answe...”

I wasn't able to select an answer for the medical records question. The provider did seem to have some access but not all for all of my charts sent over by my primary care physician. There seems to be challenges between Swedish and other medical institutions in sharing records - no fault of the physician that I saw. Overall, I was very satisfied with my visit and steps discuss to remedy my health concern. In the 6.5 years I have been dealing with this issue, Dr. Parasa is the first to genuinely take me seriously and exhibit a curiosity to solve the problem and not just treat symptoms. She didn't gaslight me as some male physicians have from other institutions and wasn't going to settle with assuming it was something that I was/wasn't doing to cause the issue. I am incredibly grateful to be in her care.
