"A medical school mentor once told me that patients will always give you the diagnosis and you just need to listen. Well spoken words. Their personal story is my greatest diagnostic so before drawing any conclusions, I always start by asking my patients to tell me about their symptoms in their own words. I love working for a health care system that exhibits and practices compassion." - Rachna Unnithan

Dr. Unnithan is an exceptional endocrinologist. I’ve gone to many in the past and I plan on staying with her forever. She listens, offers options, strategizes, and creates a treatment plan with my input. She is extremely knowledgeable about thyroid disorder.
