Patients appreciate
Dr. Varma consistently receives exceptional praise for his communication skills and patient-centered approach. Patients repeatedly describe him as an excellent listener who takes time to thoroughly explain test results, diagnoses, and treatment plans in clear, understandable terms. He is frequently commended for never rushing appointments and making patients feel comfortable asking questions. Many reviewers highlight his warm, personable, and compassionate bedside manner, noting that he treats patients like family and shows genuine concern for their wellbeing. His clinical expertise is highly regarded, with multiple patients crediting him with saving their lives through proactive care and accurate diagnoses that other doctors missed. Patients also appreciate his thoroughness, professionalism, and conservative approach to treatment. The loyalty he inspires is evident, with numerous patients driving 1.5 to 3 hours to continue seeing him, and many referring family members to his care.
Patients also share
A small number of reviews mention opportunities for improvement. One patient felt body-shamed regarding weight and diet recommendations, believing Dr. Varma didn't acknowledge their weight loss efforts or review their records showing work with a nutritionist. Two reviews mentioned visits feeling somewhat rushed, with one noting the appointment lasted less than 10 minutes. Another patient felt the visit was slightly impersonal, though they acknowledged this as a "luxury item." One review indicated occasional confusion about healthcare plans and noted that blood test results weren't discussed during a visit that seemed hurried.
