Sumalatha Mannava, MD

I have been seeing Dr. Mannava for about 2 years now and she always provides excellent primary care. She is attentive and always takes the time to listen to my concerns.

As we moved down the shore in 2020 from North Jersey , we got tired of commuting to see our Primary Physician of 17 years and started looking for a new doctor around the area that will accept our insurance. Dr. Mannava was the only doctor in that practice that will accept new patients and since I’m not that complicated I went to see her . Well , she’s very soft spoken and spent a lot of time with me and discussed new medication I should take . After few months the side effect became very annoying and I reach out to her and easily managed over the phone . I feel that she listens and understands and I will recommend her for anyone who’s looking for new attending doctor .

Just an awesome dr. Always listen

Although a new patient, I’ve seen Dr. M a few times. She was decent, but after yesterday? People need to be warned. Her lack of experience & knowledge borders on negligence. She treated me in a manner that seems discriminatory. I’ve a history of ministroke & I’m a medical cannabis patient for seizures. I described concerning neurological issues. Her reaction? Laughter. I tried to laugh it off myself, being rather humiliated, but she continued to laugh as though my symptoms were hilarious. Then she said she recommended an addiction specialist because of the cannabis use. She almost refused to acknowledge that cannabis has medical efficacy. She cited her lack of knowledge, but she insisted that I didn’t know if it was actually helping me. She doubted my medical history & my own knowledge of it & utterly dismissed the reason for my follow-up. Beware of this doctor. She’s not to be trusted.
