"My care philosophy emphasizes personalized, evidence-based treatment with a holistic focus on each patient's well-being. I prioritize open communication and collaboration with patients, families and providers to ensure cohesive, compassionate and ethical care that respects each person's dignity," said Dr. Parachuri.

"I pursued healthcare out of a passion for helping others and a desire to improve people's health and quality of life. As a specialist in pediatric neurology, I treat various neurological disorders in children up to age 18, including seizures, headaches, migraines, tics, developmental delays, muscle and nerve disorders. I also provide initial pediatric sleep medicine consultations.

"I chose to focus on pediatric neurology and sleep medicine because of my deep interest in understanding the brain's complexities and how it impacts development and well-being. Working with children and their families gives me the opportunity to make a lasting difference in their lives during critical stages of growth."

Outisde of work, Dr. Parachuri enjoys cooking, gardening and traveling. In addition to English, Dr. Parachuri is fluent in Telugu, Hindi and Kannada.

Dr. Parachuri is employed as a clinical faculty physician at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Tyler under the UT Tyler School of Medicine.
