“Working closely with Dr. Narayana, I have witnessed her compassion and care for her patients. She uses her family’s experience with cancer to be empathetic to her patient’s needs. She uses her medical expertise to formulate a personalized and expedient plan of treatment. She ensures that they receive the best possible care, advocating for them at every step of their journey. She celebrates their healing or holds space for them when delivering difficult news. She palliates their symptoms and listens to their concerns.

Dr. Narayana is an excellent physician but an even better person.”
