What Patients Say
Sarah M. Marketing Professional After struggling with digestive issues for months, Dr. Kalra was the first physician to actually listen and dig deeper. Her thorough approach identified issues my previous doctors missed. The direct communication model means I can reach her when concerns arise, not weeks later. Worth every penny for real answers and personalized care.
James K. Small Business Owner I was skeptical about weight loss medications until Dr. Kalra explained the science behind them. Her expertise in obesity medicine is evident - she doesn't just prescribe pills, she creates a comprehensive plan. Six months later, I've lost 35 pounds and feel healthier than I have in years. Finally found a doctor who gets it.
Lisa R. Newport Beach Resident I'd been putting off my colonoscopy for years due to anxiety. Dr. Kalra's team made the entire process comfortable and stress-free. She took time to explain everything and address my concerns. The procedure itself was much easier than expected. Her attention to patient comfort makes all the difference.
Your Health Questions Answered
We've compiled answers to the most common questions patients have about gastroenterology, weight management, and our concierge-style care, so you can feel confident before your first visit.
I specialize in digestive health conditions including GERD, IBS, inflammatory bowel disease, and liver disorders. As a board-certified obesity medicine physician, I also provide comprehensive weight management using FDA-approved medications and lifestyle strategies. Each treatment plan is tailored to your specific health needs and goals.
We operate as a direct-care practice, which means we don't work with insurance companies. This allows us to spend quality time with patients without insurance restrictions. While services are fee-for-service, we provide detailed receipts for potential insurance reimbursement. Many patients find the personalized attention worth the investment.
I perform upper endoscopy and colonoscopy procedures with a focus on patient comfort. These include screening colonoscopies, diagnostic endoscopies for stomach issues, and evaluations for digestive symptoms. All procedures use appropriate sedation, and I take time to explain everything beforehand so you know what to expect.
You'll receive detailed prep instructions including dietary changes and bowel preparation. Our team is available to answer questions throughout the process. We offer different prep options to fit your schedule and preferences. The goal is making you comfortable while ensuring the best possible results for your screening.
Initial consultations typically last 45-60 minutes, and follow-ups are usually 30-45 minutes. This gives us time for thorough discussion without feeling rushed. You'll have my full attention to address your concerns and create a care plan that makes sense for your lifestyle and health goals.
