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.

It was a terrible I would never ever go back to him he didn't know what he was doing before my surgery and the intern came to my room to discharge me said when they take my cath out I can go home I was never cathed I told him that he was in surgery with me he looked on both sides of the bed for the bag still not believing me I had to expose myself to him so he could see I was not cathed should have never happened

Dr Kumar is an excellent physician sent by our Lord and Savior! He has pulled me through twice with "Rectal" surgery with each diagnosis of cancer. I am a living testimony and eternally grateful and confident as I under surgery I am in the hands that God has sent for me Dr. Kumar will perform the job God has sent him to do. I have recommended him to several men and women who have been faced with medical issues. Will continue to do so he is patient, kind and treats all patience the same

Dr. Kumar has been a terrific doctor for my son. DO NOT GET IN SCAMMED BY THE BILLING DEPARTMENT!!!! They have no Idea what they are doing!! Over a year I am calling because I have never received a bill, yet they tell my son about the amount owed. Tried to call today, asked for the biller to call me back, never did. Being in the job that I am in, DON'T TRUST THESE PEOPLE!!!! ASK FIRST!!

The first appointment Dr. Kumar he used the scopes in order to properly analyze and diagnose my condition. Most other gastroenterologists in town want to make an appointment to discuss and then have you come back to do a procedure to find out what the problem is which is an extra office appointment and waste of time. He was very knowledgeable and professional.

Dr Kumar and I have been together since we were both 39 when I was diagnosed with a rectal carcinoma. That was 30 years ago. I see him every year and every 3rd year I have a colonoscopy at his surgery center. I could not ask for better care from the Doctor and his staff. I have complete trust in him and his staff. People think I'm nuts when I say I love my proctologist.

I trust Dr Kumar completely. My parents went to Dr Kumar and he discovered early cancer in both and they lived to an old age. When I have gone for issues, I explain the problem, he listens very carefully and has always chosen the right treatment or test to correct the issue. He knows his stuff!
