"Dr. Shantha is very caring and compassionate, but she is not for everyone. She listens to what you have to say, but is quick to tell you what she thinks and how it should be. I met her at an inpatient hospital and chose to continue seeing her after I got discharged, despite some of the other patients complaining about her, because she was a good fit for me. I have been seeing her for several years now. The only thing I didn’t care for was when one of my other doctors adjusted some of my medications that Dr. Shantha prescribed, because they thought it would be best for me, she was ready to drop me in a second. We got it worked out and I agreed that I would continue with her suggestion and not the other doctor. She is very educated in her field and try’s to do the best by her patients."

"Forceful, abrupt and not prone to make a connection with new clients... rather she demands a connection . She loves the challenge of triggering reactions in people , then goes in for emotional vulnerabilities , which hopefully is for the purpose of getting to the heart of issues and not just for the fun of bowling people over. Will leave that mystery to others who might find that charming. "

Data Transparency and Trust: Understanding WebMD Doctor Listings and Reviews

We know that finding the right doctor or provider is important to your health. That’s why we want to ensure you have confidence in the provider profiles and listings you see on WebMD Care. Our provider data is sourced from the physicians themselves as well as publicly available databases. Any doctor or provider who claims their profile by verifying themselves can update their information and provide additional data on their specialties, education, accepted insurances, conditions they treat, and procedures they perform.

All the physician and provider reviews on WebMD Care are provided by users just like you. Knowing these reviews provide insight into how other patients feel about a doctor, we maintain internal policies and protocols to ensure the quality and accuracy of all reviews. Providers are not able to remove or modify reviews on their own. Reviews can only be removed after an internal review by our customer service team.

We value your input and encourage you to reach out to our support team if you encounter any issues.
