I am only rating this practice one star because it will not allow me to rate it as zero. If you want to see a microcosm of everything that is wrong with the health care system today, then by all means waste your time at this practice. If you value your time, health, and money avoid this practice like the plague! You will wait for hours to be seen and when you finally are seen you will be rushed through your appointment. Dr. Gunawardane will complain to you if she has to process a worker's comp claim for you, even if you have been a patient for 8 years like I have. She doesn't like it because "it takes too long to get paid" which is a direct quote. The office will charge $45 for FMLA paperwork, $10 for a doctor's note, and $10 if you need to have your prescription reissued. They will only use certain pharmacies, regardless of how inconvenient it is for the patient, because "if I send it to your pharmacy the girls will have to stay late to do extra paperwork and they don't like that" again, another direct quote. And God forbid you ever have to deal with her office manager, Corey. Corey is rude, condescending and acts nasty and put out regardless of the reason for your call. I have never been treated as poorly by a doctor's office ever in my life and what makes the treatment of their patients even more deplorable is the fact that everyone in there is there because of extreme pain and serious medical conditions. I will be reporting this practice to every medical board professional and governing agency I can get ahold of.

After falling and hitting my neck on a violin case and my head on the concrete floor, I sustained a concussion with lots of complications. Dr. Gunawardane was referred to me through the ER. I was scared, in pain, totally a mess. She took the time to listen, asked many questions and even wrote everything down for me. She also spoke with my daughter and son with my permission and repeated the issue and course of action. Dr. Gunawardane went out of her way to call me and check on my condition.
She knew that I was worried about my students since I am a teacher and made sure that a note was written so that my principal could secure a long term sub.
Dr. Gunawardane made sure, by personally calling the pharmacy, physical therapist, and muscle therapist, that they were all coordinated and knew what they needed to focus on for me.
When my headaches were ragging and cutting through the medication, I called Dr. Gunawardane at home. She was quick to set me up with a pain control doctor and in to radiology for a MRA. It revealed that my brain had vascular damage from the fall that would not be detected by the multiple MRIs and CT scans. She sent me to the ER right away and set me up with the top Johns Hopkins Neurosurgeon.
I will be having brain surgery that, had these bleeds gone on undetected, I would have had died. It is my heartfelt belief that Dr. Gunawardane is knowledgeable, also dealing with my Lupus condition, caring, goes beyond the call of duty, and is passionate about helping others.
I am a Howard County School teacher who highly recommends Dr. Gunawardane!
