Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Shoushtari performed a root canal on me. The process was tolerable. The real problem was with my 2 follow up visits for continued pain and discomfort in the tooth he worked on. I went back telling him something was not right. A tooth shouldn't hurt. Pain is a signal something is wrong. He basically told me it was all fine and not to think about it. It was pretty insulting and 15 months later I am still experiencing the same constant discomfort. I was recently diagnosed with a fractured tooth under the crown on the tooth he did the work on. I am shocked at how little compassion he had for me and how easily he dismissed what I told him about my own body. I would never recommend him to anyone.
