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.

Doctor disdains Veterans
After 11 years of great care, the arrogance and disdain of Dr. Christopher Sinha has become apparent. After my last visit, this became alarmingly apparent. He disdains Veterans which is surprising given his own military time. I no longer trust his medical opinions. Dr. Sinha, you are fired.

I made an emergency appointment with Dr. Sinha and felt immediately comfortable with him. He listened to my concerns, was very thorough, and eased my mind quickly about my concerns. Would definitely recommend!

Felt he was distracted
I came in with a great deal of pain. After waiting 1.5 hours, I had an endoscopy done. While waiting for the endoscopy to be done, I listened to him talking on the phone in the hallway, very unhappy with someone. I felt he was distracted and I don’t trust his diagnosis. Very disappointed. I will not be back again. His office staff, however, is wonderful.

Dr. Sinha helped my father diagnose for his nose problem. My father has trace of bleeding in his nose over summer, and we are all very worried of him. Dr. Sinha did the diagnose very carefully, and relieved our concern for tumor. He explained the condition very well and provide useful suggestions. We had several questions, and he patiently listened to our concerns and explained everything in a simple way that we could understand. We all like Dr. Sinha. He is very knowledgeable with lots of clinical experience and is an ENT doctor that you can trust. Also his office screens the patients for COVID risk very carefully. All in-coming patients will be scanned for body temperature, and they will keep everyone at 6 feet away even at the entrance to avoid close contact. The COVID risk is managed very well.

From the time I called to make my first appointment everything about this practice was top notch. The front office is prompt, friendly and efficient. Dr Sinha is very personable, explains things well and will take as much time as needed to answer any and all questions. I can't think of a single thing that I would change. I would enthusiastically recommend this practice to my friends and family.

I have been going to Dr. Sinha for years and I can honestly say that I am very happy with his care. My Primary doctor refers a lot of patients to his Practice because they are very efficient. I have referred a lot of my friends to him and he treats my whole family as well. His staff is very professional and yet friendly. He definitely gets my 5 stars

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Sinha?
I have top shelf medical insurance which covered only 40% of the rate charged by the group Dr. Sinha works for. Based on this I believe they are overcharging their patients. Dr. wanted me to have 2 surgeries but I got a second opinion from another doctor that was able to treat me with only one surgery. Additionally, staff was reluctant to provide my medical information from a test that was performed and was quite rude.
