Rakesh Chandra

I've had chronic sinus infections for 40+ years but it had been a while since one had gotten this bad. I had congestion, difficulty breathing, nasal blockage, greenish discharge and in light of Covid-19, I didn't want to take any chances. So I went to Dr. Chandra for treatment and found him to be very professional, caring, gentle and I liked that he listened to me. He talked to me about my options for treatment when 2 rounds of antibiotics didn't work. He suggested Balloon Sinuplasty when I told him I didn't want surgery right now. I had the procedure, it was a success and I am currently using an antibiotic sinus rinse for the next 3 months, hoping for good results. I have been very pleased with his staff and with Dr. Chandra's care.

WAITED OVER ONE AND HALF HOUR TO SEE HIM. Did not even bother to apologize for being late. Gave me lame excuses for being late.

Fantastic physician - my 2 daughters and I all see him. Super caring and very thorough. My daughter had a tough procedure for a young woman and he was wonderful with her being afraid. Other daughter got quick referral for secondary issue- and the referral Vandy doctor was also fantastic. Never had an issue in wait times, but if I did- doesn’t negate the fact he’s a phenomenal doctor. Fantastic physician - my 2 daughters and I all see him. Super caring and very thorough.

Waited OVER an hour to see him. It seems this doctor has NO respect for his patients time.

I have been a patient of Dr Chandra’s for a few years now. I have always found him & his staff kind & considerate toward me. I’ve had a difficult sinus problem & he’s hung in there with me trying to resolve it. He always takes time to explain things to me & answer my questions.

Find Dr. Chandra a very responsive physician; professional and exceptionally patient oriented. Explains medical issues well. Exemplifies all the best in Vanderbilt's health care standards.

Dr. Chandra is a very kind and patient man. He listened to my issues and offered a treatment plan after reviewing my medical history. His was a second opinion, - for surgery - the same as the first doctor I had visited for severe recurring sinus infections. Dr. Chandra took the time to explain the why's of what was going on and how a possible surgery solution could correct it. I trusted him. I had the surgery and have been doing great ever since! Changed my life. I would highly recommend hi

I went to Dr Chandra from Knoxville on referral. He was second choice of doctors here. He did surgery in March & was sure it would fix the problem. After surgery my symptoms were not improved. He sent me to a neurologist who found no problem there. I still have the infection in my sinus, but he has no interest in finding the cause or problem. As far as he is concerned he did surgery and unlike his discription of handling sinus problems, he has washed his hands of problem.
