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.

I have been seeing Dr. Handa for the past year since I moved to New Hampshire. She is responsive and always willing to listen and find a solution. Best doctor I have ever had and I am 67 years old!

Yesterday I went to Dr Handa (new patient) and even though my appointment was for the following day Dr Handa readjusted her schedule and examined me early. Even though I disrupted her schedule she spent considerable time to address two issues that I have had for past 8 months. I feel comfortable that working together that the issues will be corrected, and my anxiety was mollified. Thank you, Dr Handa.

The worst visit I have ever had with a doctor. She was extremely rude. I came to her for a second opinion and within 10 minutes of meeting with her ONLINE she told me to go back to my old doctor and she didn't even want to work with me and acted like I was going from pcp to pcp. She was the FIRST Dr. I have consulted with outside of my regular PCP. I have every right as a patient to seek a second opinion and to seek a PCP that I have confidence in. She based her opinions solely on my records and did not listen to anything I had to say about what I am experiencing. These doctors stick together and do not care about what the patients have to say. She said my old doctor said nothing was wrong, so there must not be anything wrong without even considering that maybe something was missed. Horrible, horrible experience the way she talked down to me and cut me off when I tried to speak. I've never been so humiliated..I left that appointment devastated and in tears. Disgusting.
