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. Praveen Rao has always been very informative and helpful. I always appreciate him very much.

This is the best run practice I have ever experienced! Dr. Rao is very clear and direct in answering questions. When I had questions after the visit, he and his medical assistant responded immediately. Within 90 minutes I had spoken to both and gotten my questions thoroughly answered. The Plano BSW should take lessons from them on how to respond to patient needs!!!
