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 worst GI ever. Never gets back to her own patients, doesn't explain anything, doesn't know a lot, and uncaring. Stay away.

Great Doctor- Would recommend
My recent visit to the doctor was an absolute pleasure. I had the opportunity to meet a wonderful physician who was not only knowledgeable but also patient and kind. She took the time to listen to my concerns and provided me with a thorough examination. Her explanations were easy to understand, and she made sure I had a clear understanding of my diagnosis and treatment options.What impressed me the most was her level of care and compassion. She was genuinely interested in my well-being and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire visit. I appreciated her attention to detail and the fact that she took the time to answer all of my questions.Overall, I would highly recommend this doctor to anyone looking for a healthcare professional who is both knowledgeable and compassionate. Her expertise and caring approach make her an excellent choice for anyone seeking quand trusted her completely. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and competent healthcare professional.

Should have her license revoked
Stay away!!!! Terrible doctor. Even though I was an established patient, she was difficult to get an appointment with. I was very sick and had to repeatedly beg her staff for appointments. During the appointments, she was very rushed and did not listen to me. She kept me on the same one medication which was clearly not working even though I asked about others. She failed to adequately escalate my medication during a serious flare and ultimately I had to undergo total colectomy (surgical removal of the colon), get an ostomy, and then undergo 2 additional surgeries for a jpouch and a normal life. She doesn’t know how to manage serious conditions. Again, stay away!!!

My experience of Dr. Kher mirrors that of RS in Framingham. She was one of two gastroenterologists I received care from at Mt. Auburn during a health crisis in 2016. She was the best of the two - very thorough, patient, kind, and clearly explained the options, risks, and benefits of the treatment options before me. I will be seeing her as my regular GI specialist.

I would recommend all patients to study previous reviews of this awful doctor. She is very mediocre and doesn’t have the necessary confidence to be a good physician. She cares more about money than patient care.

Find someone else. Dr. Kher has horrible bedside manner as do her staff. She gets easily frazzled which is not something you want in a physician. Based upon my experience with her I wouldn't recommend Mount Auburn either.

Do not bother with Dr.Kherr. I waited two months to see her and she kept me waiting so long I had to leave. Never saw her. It's rude and unprofessional to leave a patient waiting.
