Dr. Sravantika Koneru was born in raised in southern India. She always wanted to help people, and with several relatives in the medical profession as role models, she pursued a career in medicine.

"I got into family medicine because I relish the opportunity to take care of entire families and advocate for their comprehensive, preventive care," Dr. Koneru said. "I treat each patient like family. I don't rush patients. I listen to their concerns. I work with them and always make sure they are comfortable with their treatment plan."

She is married to a fellow OSF physician and is a mother to two boys. In her free time, Dr. Koneru likes to listen to music, dance, travel and spend time with family and friends.
