Dr. Ravindran is excited to continue serving patients of all ages as part of Allergy Partners of the Triangle. Dr. Ravindran is board-certified in Allergy & Immunology.

Dr. Ravindran earned both his undergraduate and medical degree from Ohio State University. He then completed his residency training at Emory University, followed by his Allergy & Immunology fellowship at the University of North Carolina, and is now proud to call the Triangle home.

“My path to becoming an allergist was shaped by my own experiences living with food allergies, seasonal allergies, and asthma. This personal perspective helps me understand the challenges that my patients and their families face, and it motivates me to provide compassionate, personalized care that makes their daily life a little easier.”

Dr. Ravindran has contributed to the field through multiple journal articles published in respected, peer-reviewed journals, including Allergy and the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (JACI). His food allergy research has also been presented at numerous state, regional, and national allergy meetings, including those hosted by the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology (AAAAI), the American College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology (ACAAI), the Southeastern Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology Society (SEAAIS), and the North Carolina Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology Society (NCAAIS).

Fnu Shakuntulla, MD

With a passion for patient care, I pursued Internal Medicine residency training at AmitaHealth Saint Joseph Hospital, University of Illinois, Chicago, where I honed my skills in patient-centered care. My passion for addressing complex allergic and immunologic conditions led me to a fellowship in Allergy and Immunology at the University of South Florida Morsani College of Medicine.

My philosophy of care is rooted in partnership. I believe that truly understanding a patient’s story— their symptoms, fears, and goals— is the foundation of effective treatment. Whether managing allergic rhinitis, asthma, or food allergies, I employ innovative, evidence-based treatments. There is no greater reward than witnessing a patient, young or old, regain the freedom to live without the burden of their condition.

I am honored to join Allergy Partners of Raleigh, bringing my expertise to a community I am eager to serve. Outside the clinic, I find joy in my family—my husband and our two boys—who fill our home with laughter. I am committed to delivering state-of-the-art medicine with compassion, forging lasting connections with my patients to enhance their health and well-being.
