Dr. Uppu was excellent!
Positive experience, exceeded all expectations. I felt cared for as a whole person.
There was practically no wait time
Dr Uppu and his team are the best! I moved three hours away and drive in to see them. I trust them all and they are all so kind and so caring. I could not ask for better treatment.
I have traveled from the state of West Virginia for Dr. Uppu and will be relocating to continue my care with this wonderful Physician and his thorough, experienced and professional Nursing staff and colleagues at UT specifically at the Fannin Street location. I will driving from Conroe (about an hour and a half North) to continue treatment with this wonderful Doctor and staff. I have seen many doctors over the years looking for answers for my Congenital heart issues and Dr. Uppu is experienced and even knew which medication to change and the improvement was almost immediate! I will continue to trust that Dr. Uppu will be instrumental in resolving my health issues. I would trust my 81 year old mother in his care.
Great experience. I don't understand why I am called and then put on hold after answering. I just hang up. And I'm unsure what the text I sent STOP is about, hence the STOP reply. I am beyond very pleased with my treatment and the way everyone treats me like I'm Special. Thank you.
