    Comment

    She doesn't give me any information or follow up. I felt like my issues had everything to do with my adrenal gland and the symptoms of an endocrine problem. I was having some serious issues and she said that was not her department.

    Comment

    My experience was very positive with De. Menon. She is very professional and caring. I loved that about her. I wished all doctors was like Dr. Menon.
