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.

Called for a refill due to moving and not being able to get into doctor right away and having a hard time Breathing. Nurse said he would have to be seen there in order to refill his inhalers that help him breathe. So meanwhile my husband has to wait for the VA to get him I’m in order to get inhalers, however he struggles to breathe everyday until then.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Cheriyan?
Told us we should have a DNR for my mother because of her alzheimers and breathing issues. He said she would never have a quality of life. Her hospital stay had exasperated her alzheimers. He wouldn't sign off on her getting a trach. Now that she does have a trach and is home 2 1/2 years later she is doing great. Of course with alzheimers we have good days and bad days but I am thankful for every day we have.
