I am 76 and have dealt with many good doctors. Dr Palaniswami is the most concerned, helpful doctor I have ever had. I see her for lupus. She covers not only my lupus needs but my general well being. She is absolutely amazing. She came highly recommended by other doctors and I certainly understand why.

We really didn't have a chance to discuss treatment options or POC. We're still trying to figure out what is happening with me.

Can't say enough good things about Dr. P. She has been taking care of me for over 10 years.
