Rating & Reviews
Dr Mantrala was so kind and took the time with me and my daughter to check in on all aspects of her health. I appreciated her professionalism and thoroughness. You can tell she genuinely cares about her patients and knows what she's doing.
Love Dr Mantrala! She always treats us with kindness and dignity.
Dr. Mantrala was very sweet, kind and really listened to all of concerns. She answered it all with respect and really calm tone manner which helps with us being new parents. We had concerns with our newborn baby and she's very knowledgeable and also guided us with follow-ups. Thank you, Dr. Mantrala for being so sweet and kind.
Very impressed with this physician - her bedside manner, how she listened to our concerns and her plan of action. Thank you
Dr. Mantrala is thoughtful and detail-oriented. She listens attentively, and I never feel that she is in a rush. I respect her medical opinion, especially as a physician myself, and like how she addresses my concerns in both an empathetic and professional manner. My son likes that he gets to see her most of the time we need an appointment and feels comfortable with the experience at the office.
It was wonderful and very comfortable.
Dr. Manchala is great!

I so appreciate Dr Mantrala's assistance she recognized my family and said it was good to see us again as she is not our regular provider but sees us when our pcp isn't available- she is always so patient and kind!
