Rao Roopa, MD

She was great… took the time to advise me about my health issues and the recommended treatment worked perfectly. Having just moved to the area, I am so relieved to have found her.

I like her so much. She takes care of me. She is the best. She take care of her time with me

Dr. Rao has been my OBGYN for 7 years. Since I was 18. I’ve never had another dr. And I used to love her. She used to be so caring and so available for her patients. In the past couple of years her hours have shortened, her office help has lessened and she has had less patience. She has become very short and today I experienced I very rude phone call from dr. Rao herself. I have had many problems with birth control and am very sensitive to high dosages. When I first went on the pill dr. Rao went through the leg work with me to find the perfect pill. I’ve been on it for 5 years and it is a brand name. Recently I’ve come across a financial strain and can no longer afford this pill so I asked her to put through a new prescription for a generic version. When I first called I guess I said the name of the generic wrong and the pharmacy kept filling a brand name pill. I went back and forth with dr. Rao’s office and became very frustrated because her office clerk didn’t seem to understand that I needed a generic. So on Friday I left her a frustrated voicemail saying I needed a generic and that at this point I didn’t care what it was and that I would deal with the symptoms because I was so frustrated. Dr. Rao called me today and told me that because I said the generic name wrong it was my fault I was in this mess. I told her that I’m not a dr. And that she should have known that it was wrong and corrected it. She began to argue with me and at that point I was convinced that she was no longer the dr. I knew and trusted. Now I have to find a new dr. And it breaks my heart.

Dr Rao, is the best dr ever! I have been going to her for 7 years. She will always take the time to answer all your questions until you have no more. I have never been rushed at all. Dr Rao also delivered my first baby! She was amazing. I wish she was still delivering babies when I had my second child!
Thank you Dr Rao for all you do!

Dr. Rao truly cares for you not just as a patient, but as a person. She takes the time that you need to talk about whatever concerns you and also shares her own personal experiences to make you feel at ease. I also have worked with her at the hospital and she goes above and beyond to make sure her patients have the best care. She also expects that the other surgeons that she is working with put the patient first. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a competent, caring, caring MD. She is excellent as a surgeon as well. Love her!

First, I am writing this review as both a patient and from the perspective of a Registered Nurse (I don’t work with Dr Roa). I had a ob/​gyn who I loved and delivered 4 of my babies. Sadly he retired and I needed a new MD. I found Dr Roa. She guided me through severe dysfunctional uterine bleeding– conservatively first with medication and then when that course was exhausted she performed a endometrial ablation. Thank God for competent Doctors. I then had horrible peri-​menopausal symptoms with intractable insomnia. She was sympathetic and immediately put me on hormone replacement therapy. I was able to sleep again. I will be Dr Roa’s patient forever. She is not only a wonderful physician, but has a great bedside manner.
