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.

The best Cardiologist Ever
Dr. Nava took me from deaths door step to leading a healthy productive life. He explained the changes I had to make along with the proper medication and diet allowing me to see my son reach adulthood. When I arrived at the hospital I was in congestive heart failure, Dr Nava was on call and he saved my life. I have followed his instructions and I am now healthy. Thank you Dr Nava and staff.

Year follow up appointment
Dr. Nava has been an excellent specialist provider the two appointments we have had after my previous provider moved out of state. He is clear to interpret EKG findings. He is patient listening to questions. He reviewed medications and noted changes from the past year. I appreciate Dr.Nava’s care plan review and personable encouragement. Unable to click my response next question. It was not a Telehealth appointment
