Dr. Tadepalli was fantastic. I've been experiencing a number of concerning symptoms for several months now, and was referred by an outside physician for a hem/onc consult. I feel sure that's a nerve-wracking experience for anyone, but Dr. Tadepalli really put me at ease. Not because he suggested that everything is definitely fine or that I've been worried for no reason, but because he actually listened to me. It was clear through the course of our conversation that he was paying attention to what I was telling him; he asked follow-up questions when he wanted more detail, and I could tell by the way he spoke to me that he really wanted to understand what my experience has been so that he can help me. He answered all of my questions and spoke to me like I'm an intelligent person, which is something I really appreciate. He mentioned a number of things that may be on the differential, and assured me that he would cast a wide net because he wants to be sure that we figure out what's causing my symptoms. I've seen a number of physicians in the last six months trying to get some answers about my worrisome lab results and symptoms. Dr. Tadepalli is the first who made me feel like I was being heard. It was also readily apparent from our conversation that he is a very smart person, which is also, of course, very reassuring. I really can't say enough good things about my first appointment with him and I would not hesitate to send anyone I know to see him.

The Doctor or Physician (i.e. Dr Tadepalli) communicated with me about my favorite pastime exercises (e.g. Running, Court Tennis, Golf Fishing and others.). In my view, that is a very good sign that there is more to good Medical Health than Prescription Medications. Thank you, Dr. Tadepalli, for your interest in my favorite pastime exercises and the encouragement to continue such.

Highly likely to recommend for his knowledge and confidence and get to it-ness, but with the added caveat that he may be late, and not care about you enough to even acknowledge it, so don't expect kindness and social etiquette...even at a time when we need it most in thos world.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 8/8/2025

Whether I meet with Dr. Tadepalli in person or via telemedicine, it's going to be a 20 minute wait. Perhaps his appointments should include more time.

While I wasn't happy with his recommendation for further testing and referrals, I absolutely believe that this is the best course of action. I have every confidence in his professional judgment. His nurse was able to answer the questions that I had.

The doctor was very quick in diagnosing the problem and ordered for a lab test to confirm his diagnosis. The lab test was done in 10 minutes. The lab results were in the patient portal by the time I reached home (about 10 minutes drive). The doctor followed up with me about the results on the same day as he had promised. I will recommend the doctor and the staff supporting him to anyone I know off.

Dr Tadepalli reviewed my biopsy results and treatment plan moving forward, leaving open the possibility of future changes in treatment pending results from Cari's testing that is currently being conducted. As a patient I really appreciate when physicians include patients in care decisions because that has not always been my experience. I also appreciate that Dr Tadepalli and his associates on the care team (NP, nurses) fully understand that the best clinical outcomes result when patients are actively enhanced in care decisions

Dr.Tadepalli did a great job of discussing and explaining recent test and scan results. He also took time to answer my multiple questions I had about possible treatments for future that I had researched. He explained why each might be helpful or why it might not be helpful for my specific cancer situation. Then he discussed which could be started now and which would prefer too put off for a while after seeing full results of current regiment if treatment
