Try elsewhere first. I read the two positive reviews and tried her. I think Dr. Chandrasekhar herself seemed knowledgeable, but the office and the whole experience was terrible. One i went to an appointment, waited 45 minutes, got tired of waiting, asked, and only then was told she was running 1 ½ hours behind. Pretty lame not to tell me in advance or just reschedule. She also prescribed for me something that the insurance company considered experimental procedure. It was painful and resulted in long-term ringing in my ears. That was pretty poor form not to be informed it was experimental and the risks beforehand. Finally, I had a follow up question after I saw her, and I’ve called and spoken with people who said they’d ask her and call me back, like 5 times, and still haven’t gotten an answer. :(

Dr. Chandrasekhar is amazing! The comments from Daryll H. are spot-on. I have had ear ‘issues’ since I was 2-years-old and have been to many Otologists and she is the best Otologist and best doctor I have ever had. When I was young, I had annual myringotomies and more recently tympanoplasties. Dr. Chandrasekhar performed one and more recently inserted a Bone Anchored Hearing Aid(BAHA). She is not only highly professional, active as a researcher in her field, up-to-date on all the latest advances and break-through, and an excellent doctor, but she treats her patients as human beings. She never makes me feel rushed and takes all the necessary time to answer all my questions, explain all the pros and cons of a procedure, and does all this with warm good humor. Dr. Chandrasekhar is a very unique and special doctor. I recommend her unreservedly to anyone!

Best. Doctor. Ever. I went to see Dr. C for an inner ear issue I was having(she’s a otolarynologist or whatever they’re called) — it had been horribly misdiagnosed for 18 months and left me kinda wacked out. She pretty much figured out the general problem without even doing an exam, and sent me to a bunch of other specialists for further testing. The specialists she sent me to were just as high-end as she was, and I couldn’t be happier with them. Some of my followups involved wacky testing with people that had no appointments for 3 or 4 months — she of course made a couple of calls and got me in in a week or two. She also had my case reviewed with the guy who wrote the book(literally) on vesibular/sensorimotor function, and was supposedly the«#1 doctor in the world» for this particular problem. Basically whenever I need to see any sort of doctor, I’m just going to ask her for a reference, because everyone she knows is made of gold. Also, she is the coolest person ever, and I don’t call you cool unless you really are. In fact, you, the person reading this, are probably only 1⁄47th as cool as Dr. C. Badass!
