Dr. Sasrutha Wickramasinghe, MD, PHD

It was my first time meeting Dr Rosi. He's new in Philadelphia, and new at his job and I was nervous. I was very impressed how much he had read about my background before even seeing me, and he started the conversation like we had known each other for years. He is very smart (when I inquired he bashfully said he trained at Johns Hopkins... no wonder!). He answered all my questions, and took a long time explaining what was going on with me, and why I should lose weight, eat better and exercise. He even spent about 15 minutes discussing some of the strategies he is looking into to lose weight himself. I never for once felt like he was a doctor, but more like a friend. I have since sought to see him and him only in clinic. He is a great doctor and an even better cardiologist.

I went to see Dr Rossi with my sister at Wyman Park. He was late to see us, but was very apologetic and explained to us why he was late. Although a bit irritated, we appreciated him taking the time to explain why he was late (and it wasn't due to his fault, since we were the last patient he saw). He spent time attentively listening to my sister's knee pain and arthritis and explained very clearly what he thought was going on. He was never judgmental about anything we told him. Overall, we had a very positive experience, and came away from our visit feeling very satisfied. He even gave his email address and asked us to write to him if there was any worsening of our symptoms that needed attention. We need more doctors like him in Baltimore!

My experience with this doctor was wonderful. He took time to explain my problems carefully and was very attentive about my special needs. I would gladly visit him again.
