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.

Wonderful Doctor!
We began seeing Dr. Kumar when my daughters were still in grade school. That was 20+ years ago and both my daughters have grown up and moved out of state. Dr. Kumar was knowledgeable, thorough and also very personable with all of us. As a senior citizen I continue to see Dr. Kumar and am extremely pleased, and enthusiastically recommend her!

Went for my second annual check-up. Spent 5 minutes with me. I asked her to include a B12 test because I had been low several years ago. She agreed but when I went to the lab, she had forgotten to add this to the list. The lab tech said she would run the test upon approval. I called next day and Dr Kumasi is gone tor a week. I had to make three calls to have them run this test.

I was a patient of hers back when I turned of age. I believe my first appointment was a straightforward physical, so nothing special. The ones that followed were just awful. The reviews mentioning how curt and non-caring she is are true. When I came to her to tell her that I might have some kind of mental illness, her attitude/demeanor felt like she was fed up with dealing with people from the suburbs. I dont trust her in being a caring doctor. Skip her. Shes not comfortable to work with.

3 experiences with her. 1st was at 8am cause I had to be at work by 9. She got there at 840. walked in said a dry sorry and proceeded to do the minimal w/o eye contact. I gave her another chance. 2 visit I felt a lump on breast, she barely looked at it no other tests ordered but ultrasound which she wrote incorrectly so they couldn't schedule & were not shocked it was her. 3rd she was hr late, I heard her in the lobby I complained to the nurse, then came in and barely apologized. I have a new dr

Barely spoke or looked me in the eye. Did not take time or acknowledge on a personal level as expected. Spent about 5 minutes with patient. Patient did not feel cared about or that needs were addressed.
