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.

Just saw Dr. Iswara for the first time. He took the time to explain to me all the possible implications of Crohn’s, and thoroughly walked me through his diagnosis and recommendations. Very personable and clearly knowledgeable. Adding mine to all the other five star reviews here.

He did my colonoscopy on june 25. He did excellent job. Unluckily I had severe post operative pain which I held him responsible. In brief, later I felt he was not. He is a great and trustworthy doctor. On my next visit to him he gave me an ointment and I was fine. He is a humble but trustworthy and great doctor. The adverse remarks I gave previously were an angry and unthoughtful reaction for which I deeply apologise. May he live long and keep helping patients recovery.

I arrived 10 mins early for my appointment. The waiting room was very small and completely packed, with not one available seat. A few other patients and I had to sit in small folding chairs, practically on top of each other. As it turns out, the doctor wasn't even in the office yet. After an hour of waiting, and no promise of being seen any time soon, I had to leave. I then found out that almost all patients in the waiting room were scheduled for the same exact time. Completely unprofessional.

Doesn't want to be bothered with patients who's diagnoses not jumping at him. Dr. Iswara spends more time with his back to you typing into computer than talking to you. Does not diagnose gives antinausia meds as bandage.
