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.

Fantastic doctor. Did my hysterectomy. Walked me through all the options of a very complicated situation and helped me make the best decisions for my health. She was always available to me, even visited me personally in the hospital! Never felt like I had too many questions. My recovery was great and she's my go-to OB now. She's also kind and friendly, which goes a long way!

Well...as stated above the parking is good. Dr Prabakar, not so much. Inexperienced and lacks confidence.
