About Menaka Mahadevan, MD

  • Dr. Mahadevan spent most of her youth in Arkansas, but has been a Texan for over 10 years. When she is not working, Dr. Mahadevan enjoys hiking the many trails in Austin with her dog, Tanner. She is a dog lover and has rescued three cocker spaniels. Among her favorite local spots is the Barton Creek Greenbelt.

I chose medicine because I wanted to make a difference in a person’s life in a meaningful way. Children have such pure spirits and make each day rewarding. I love seeing the personalities of my patients develop over the years. I feel it is always important to involve families in the care of their child and listen to the parents. I will always provide guidance through evidence-based medicine, but will recommend what works best for each individual family.

    Today was an easy visit. Arrived in time and didn’t have to wait long. The Dr was easily able to give feedback on the issue and a plan to help my son feel better.

    The fast response and excellent care Dr. Mahadevan gives to my child.

    I got to my appointment on time but had new insurance and didn’t get called back for my appointment until almost an hour later. Was told I had to be worked back into the schedule due to the insurance verification. All understandable but it was frustrating having to keep my toddler entertained for that long in the waiting room.
