Purnima Rao, MD, FACOG

"Dr. Rao is kind, professional & informed on up-to-date research. She did my surgery & is managing my pregnancy so far with me really well. I would highly recommend her as an OB-GYN."

"One of the worst obgyn ever, definitely not one to listen to you. As a first time mom made me feel dumb with questions I asked. Didn't even want to sign my fmla Edit- I have sent a email to Kelsey when this happen and they never responded to me. So there "sorry" means nothing."

"I have no words to describe how happy I am that we choose Dr. Rao. I am extremely grateful of her that she made time to do my C-section even though she was not originally scheduled to be the one to do it (it was thanksgiving too). I had such a peace of mind knowing it was her on the other side of the curtain. In regards to the surgery itself, I have a very clean incision and have been recovering better than I had expected. During my pregnancy, she was extremely helpful and honestly quite straightforward as to what I should do and the consequences if I don’t . I really liked that about her. It may sound blunt but I loved her honesty. I also found her nurses super caring and helpful. (They are always matching scrubs, so cute). If anyone is looking for a no BS … OBGYN, trust me, she is the way to go. Lol"

"I had a pleasant experience with my first pregnancy, thanks to Dr. Rao. She is very knowledgeable, personable and empathetic, made me feel less anxious and more assured throughout. I was able to have a natural smooth delivery and a healthy baby last week. I would recommend her especially to all first time moms."

"I am thankful to Dr. Rao for her skill and her professionalism. She had so much patience with me toward the end of my pregnancy and helped me get through to the end. My son had a complication and she reassured me the whole way. We had a healthy 7lb, 10oz little boy via c section... it definitely wasn’t what I wanted but my son had other plans. He was breech and would not turn. I was so nervous about having a c section but Dr. Rao calmed me down. I would not trust my child or my body to another doctor. Thank You, Dr. Rao."
