Dr. Gopinath is very kind, friendly and listens intently to concerns and then acts quickly. She has a keen mind and thorough approach to patient care. I highly recommend her as a primary physician.
Dr. Gopinath is highly knowledgeable and focused on research, often relying on studies rather than engaging with the patient's individual needs.

After multiple visits, I've decided to switch to a provider who prioritizes direct patient engagement.
