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.

Too bad zero stars aren't an option. Rudest doctor I have ever met! Does not listen to patients and is dismissive of your complaints and symptoms. I don't understand why he is employed.

Safe to say he's the most condescending & rude doctor I have ever been to. Came into urgent care with a severe rash and Dr. Sawant glanced at it from afar for 3 seconds & "diagnosed" it without asking me any history questions or expressing any concern for my well-being. I attempted to tell him that I had already tried OTC treatment & he cut me off saying I was wrong & he was putting me on 2 oral pills. I was then shoved a prescription without instructions or explanation. HORRIBLE bedside manner!

Flat out refused to prescribe a different medication when I told him 3 times that I had a reaction to a specific anitbiotic. He gave me absolutely NO good reason for this! All I can imagine is that his EGO is more important than listening to what his patients are saying.

Dr. Sawant was patient& very caring! He made my son feel completely at ease as he stitched him up! The nurse Sherri was equally kind & attentive. We were both very grateful for the exceptional & quick care that he received!!

I was at the hospital the other day waiting for my mother to be checked up on, I could't help but overhear Dr. Dilip talking down to a patient. She was asking simple questions about the steroids he wanted to inject into her body. Question's she has every right to ask. Basically Dr. Dilip told her that he's god and that if he tells her to do something she should just do it and basically showed his dismay for having his authority ever being questioned. I found his behavior to be dispicable.

During a recent visit to GCTC I found Dr. S to be rushed, brusque and peremptory in his discussion and diagnosis of my condition. He never even introduced himself. I did not have a real consultation, not even a true doctor/patient conversation with him. He never gave the basis for diagnosis. I am in part self-insured and charges were exorbitant for the quality of service provided. I tried 3 times to reach Dr. S electronically to raise questions and concerns. Never succeeded; very frustrating.
