Biography
Dr. Nagashree Gundu Rao is a specialty care physician board certified in
endocrinology and internal medicine. She has a special interest in management
of diabetes, thyroid disorders, metabolic bone diseases, pituitary disorders,
obesity, and endocrine disorders in pregnancy.
Prior to joining Inova Medical Group, Dr. Gundu Rao served as an
endocrinologist with Nova Medical Group.
Dr. Gundu Rao became interested in endocrinology, as this field provides her the intellectual
stimulation and varied experiences that she seeks. Even a minor impairment in hormonal function
can create multi-organ system involvement and test a physician's diagnostic skills. She also finds
it rewarding to see resolution of patients' symptoms, in most cases, following treatment. Her goal
is to build long-term partnerships with her patients by empowering them towards better health
through patient education, evidence-based treatment options, and accurate identification of rootcause
of symptoms, with an emphasis on preventative health.
A native of Bangalore, India, Dr. Gundu Rao currently resides in Ashburn, Virginia, with her family.
In her spare time she likes to read, cook, garden, travel and catch up with tennis.
