Care Delivered Where You Are

In your home

Digestive problems are personal, and they rarely keep clinic hours. A home visit lets Dr. Krishnan take a thorough history without a rushed appointment slot – reviewing symptoms, medications, and diet in the place where they actually play out. For seniors and patients managing ongoing GI conditions, being evaluated at home removes the stress of travel on a day when the stomach is already the problem.

Telehealth

Many gastroenterology questions don't require an in-person exam to move forward. Over secure video, Dr. Krishnan can review test results, adjust a treatment plan, discuss whether a symptom warrants further workup, or follow up after a procedure – so patients across Santa Clarita and Greater Los Angeles stay connected to specialist care between visits.

Sofiia Puhach

I am a medical student driven by the intersection of clinical practice, research, and medical communication. As a Medical Editor for Doctor2me, I specialize in refining complex medical information for a broader audience. My academic journey is defined by a commitment to scientific inquiry and a hands-on approach to healthcare, evidenced by my ongoing research work and my volunteer service at a military hospital. I am passionate about contributing to the future of medicine through both evidence-based research and compassionate service.

My clinical curiosity spans the full spectrum of surgical disciplines, though I am most dedicated to the field of neurosurgery.

In my editorial work, I prioritize clinical accuracy by synthesizing data from gold-standard medical sources, including PubMed, the NIH, and the CDC. I ensure every article is grounded in the latest evidence-based research, frequently referencing ClinicalTrials.gov and clinical insights from Harvard Medical School.

My writing aims to serve as a steady roadmap for readers, offering them the science without  'medical-speak'. I believe that when patients have access to credible, peer-reviewed information, they are better equipped to navigate their recovery and treatment.
