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.

Dr. Litam is a rare find. Knowledgeable & caring.
Dr Litam has been helping me stay as healthy as possible for a long time. If you want a physician who cares about you as a person every bit as much as he cares about you as a patient, look no further than Dr. Litam.

Doctor Litam is a very great and caring doctor !
Since the first time that I met him I respected him cause you could see the care in his face and all he that he tries to do with his patients! And there are other doctors in this field that leave us as patients blind to what is going on but with Dr. Litam when I started asking questions he really opened up to me about everything and I really appreciate that and told me the things that I needed to know I was able to cope more because of this! I’m dealing with stage four lung cancer and now I have lesions in my brain! I have been going through Immunology treatment for lung. We are putting that on hold so that I can start Radiation on my brain, he’s trying to help me not to get side effects so that’s why were stopping for a few week! I really appreciate this man and his efforts of trying to help me get this gone!

Is not fair to judge on the 1st appointment
3 stars. Why? Because I was willing to wait for my next appointment with to give him a second chance. I really wanted to wait to know him better. However, since I was frequently contacted by an automated call system to do this, here I go... (I am getting to the point) I was curious about the treatment he suggested, since it was totally new for me (I was told that my anemia is not due iron deficiency and I have never had ferritin issues before), and he asked me: "Don't you want to feel better?". I looked at him and smiled because I thought he was using humor, but he wasn't. I told him: "Doctor, of course, who doesn't?" I am pretty sure that he meant good to me, maybe he sees patients has his children that need to care and protect. However there are ways to talk to a curious patient. I hope this ends the automated calling.

Very focused doctor who cares.
I was amazed at Dr. Litam's total focus into my deep vein thrombosis condition two years ago - he was concerned, and asked several questions to identify cause and treatment. Over time, he made me feel very much at ease by explaining how new blood vessels grow around the affected vein, thus giving me hope for a full recovery. I am happy to be under his care.
