Dr. Krsihna Yalamanchili was a very intelligent and caring man. He is a big part of my life and always will be even though he is not with us anymore.

I am sorry for your loss, for the worlds loss and most importantly his family's loss. He was a very loved man, thanks for sharing him with us.

To the Family of Dr. Krishna Yalamanchili ... We just learned today of Dr. Chili's passing. We were deeply saddened and shocked and, of course, so sad that we missed being able to pay our respects to him. We are both social workers who worked with Dr. Chili years ago at OLOL and learned so much from him. He was an exceptional psychiatrist who gave so much to others through his warmth and genuine kindness. We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Dr. Chili's passing is a loss to so many.
With deepest sympathy,

I was a patient of your beloved family member Dr. Chili. He deserves more thank yous than I can say..he saved my life. I was referred to him when a college left the lake because of his advanced knowledge of pharmecology. One of the last acts of your dear life brought me out of a deep depression. I can only pray for a doctor who can keep me where I am because of his treatment. Be comfroted during this difficult times.
October 1, 2010
I am so sorry for your loss. Dr. Chili was a ray of sunshine in my life each and everyday. He had that beautiful smile on his face that made you feel good just seeing him. Everytime he stopped in my office all of the chaos seemed to disappear and he brought a sense of peace and calm that was contagious. I will never forget him, his memory will live on forever. I will pray for you and your family, Sincerely Mary Ellen Young.

I was so sad to about the passing of Dr. Chili. While I only had the pleasure of working with him on occasion, he was always so pleasant in the face of some of the most difficult situations. He helped train my brother Kevin while he was in ER training at the Earl. He still fondly relates humorous stories of his time with Dr. Chili. I helped care for him during a brief illness many years ago, and despite being sick he was always postive and upbeat. I know he will be sorely missed by his patients, friends and colleagues. Just a wonderful example of what we should all strive to achieve in life-industry, peace and happiness.

I worked at the Lake with Dr. Chili for many years until I retired recently. He was always a bright light when he came to the unit, smiling,interested in the staff and their concerns, helpful with our questions,compassionate to his patients, ever so patient with us. He was a caring physician, a wonderful human being. We have all been blessed by having him pass through our lives. I am so grateful.

"To the family, coworkers, friends & other patients like myself...the death of Dr.Chili is a reminder of how God used him to place blessings in my life. Through Dr. Chili's skills (both counseling and ECT) I was introduced to LIFE--a life without being suicidal! In my 12 year "career" with mental illness, he is the only dr that encouraged me the entire way to stability without using Rx's that would numb me to life.

My very dear friends, I just now learned of our great loss! We have known your family since the days at East La. State Hosp. George and I have been at many meetings with Dr. Chili, we have enjoyed your hospitality at your home and we grieved with you at the loss of your son. When George was very depressed he sought help from his fellow psychiatrist, Dr. Chili. And when George's sister was ill Dr. Chili was there too. I am so very sorry that I missed being at the services but I hope to be able to visit with your family soon. With compassion, love and prayers, Kathy Bishop

My condolences to the family. I worked with Dr. Chili at Parkland Hospital and then later at the Baton Rouge General. He was always cheerful and always smiling. He was so kind to me, especially when I was a new nurse and trying to learn what to do. Lately I would see him working out at Southdowns Spectrum and he would always stop to chat.

September 28, 2010
To the Family of Dr. Chilli,
Dr. Chilli was my mom's doctor for seven years now. He helped her so much. He always took time with her and was so patient and compassionate while she would talk to him. We moved to Texas for 3 years. We always drove back to BR for her appointments. My mom only wanted to see Dr. Chilli. I sent a letter to OLOL saying what a kind, compassionate, caring doctor he was. I stated in the letter we would drive 300 miles just so she could see Dr. Chilli. The next time she saw him, I asked him did he get the letter I sent about him. He said, yes I did. I said, "did they give you a raise?" He smiled and said I could have all the money in the world, money comes and goes, but the letter will be with me forever. I never forgot that.
It would take me a long time to tell you of all the special things he did for my mother and how he would go out of his way even as busy as he was to always take the time and talk to me about my mother.
You all were very blessed to have him in your life.
You and your family are in our prayers.
May the peace of God be with all of you.

I am so sorry to find our dearest family friend left all of us unexpectedly and it is hard for me to put into words how I feel. He is one of very few friends whom we dearly know for the last thirty years. We have so many fond memories and we miss Gopala Krishna. He was allways there for my family and really touched our lives by his support during the tough times. We will all miss him. Rani, you are in my thoughts and we pray God for you, your family and also for our dear friend soul to rest in peace with him.
Love you and your entire family

Dear Rani,
We have been greatly saddened by the loss of a dear friend and a great colleague. Krishna was always there for us through the years of my practice and consultation with my patients, As my practice drifted to outpatient, he was a source of my patient's comfort at the hospital. Worked with him in the close proximity at Parkland and then at Our Lady of the Lake Hospital, he was an inspiration to all of us.
He will be missed dearly.
During this time of sorrow and utmost grief we pray that he be in peace and that God give you strength to heal.
our love to your family.

As one of Dr. Chili's sales reps for a total of 10+ years, I can say with sincerity that he was one of my favorite doctors to visit. He will be missed so much, and my weekly routine trips to India's Restaurant won't feel the same. May you find strength and peace in this time of grievance.
September 27, 2010
It was an honor to work with someone who truly had an appreciation for the goodness in people, a zest for living and such a wonderful sense of humor. He was good, gracious and kind. He will be missed greatly in this community. Everyone I know loved him. My son helped him with his workouts at the gym at one time and he was thrilled when Chris became a pilot. How fortunate we were to have known him.
Bless you and your family.
