      It was changed to in person appointment by my request, which was taken care of immediately. Dr. Rao is an excellent doctor. Lab test review is a big part of my appointment with her. She goes over them with me, explaining in great detail. She tells me how they affect my care. I always feel like I am well taken care of during my appointments with her.

      Dr. Rao always explains everything in detail the results of my bloodwork and if I have a Dexa Scan the results of that. If I need to change medication, we go over that issue. It's always nice when a doctor takes the time to explain everything to a patient.

      Doctor is excellent but waited to see her for an hour, longest I have ever waited, I think in decades at UK HealthCare. The resident tried but... did not know my situation and that was after waiting 30 mnutes.

      Dr. Rao explained the bone biopsy to me very clearly. She even called me with an alternative date for it after my concern with a conflict. She even remembered that I was planning on going out of town after the event. This really impressed me and meant a lot.

      Dr Rao is excellent. She takes time to review all my health issues. She explained my lab work which was abnormal in a way I could understand. We talked over the treatment plan together. She answered all my questions.

      The only thing I disagreed with in the summary visit document I received was that I was listed as drinking a bourbon a day. I'm an occasional drinker. I will have a drink on a celebratory occasion, or when I visit family who live in Chicago , for Thanksgiving.
