Dr. Narasimha is very knowledgeable and thorough and explains things in a way that I can understand. She makes sure to address all our concerns. She also encourages healthy habits for my whole family in a very effective way. To illustrate: This well child visit, she asked my daughter how many servings of fruit she eats a day. After the visit, my daughter asked me to pack her more fruits for snacks for school. Isn't that great?
