Patient Reviews
Aug 14, 2021
Dr Ahimsa is my sister. I am writing this because I want people to know she saved my life during the Covid 19 shut down in Spring of 2020 when I was assaulted and knocked out in my apartment and suffered head trauma and had to be hospitalized at UCSF. She picked me up from the hospital and helped me get my ID back that was stolen and got money returned to my bank account. She also helped me with police and DA reports and set up my meals on wheels and paratransit and talked to Parkmerced to keep them from evicting me. I nominated her for CNN Hero of the Year for the award winning work she is doing with the Hunters Point Biomonitoring clinic. People love her and call her Dr Ahimsa.
