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.

ALWAYS TAKES THE TIME FOR HIS PATIENTS!
I'm supposed to tell about the review how do I feel about my visit well it's every visit he always asks me..... how am I feeling?, what are my elements?, what's going on in my life?, and he really cares. He does not try to shovel medicine down your throat and it not work and try five more medicines and they finally might work after weeks of aggressively making you sick - He will sit down comfort you in finding out what is wrong and what you need the first time!! I am VERY thankful that a family member introduced me to doctor Kumar and his staff who ARE unbelievably sweet and helpful!!

The doctor himself seemed like a good person, but he prescribed me medicine 3 times that interact with medicine I'm already taking. But that isn't the biggest downfall, its the people who work for him. They are completely inept and shouldn't be allowed to work in health care period. I will never go back here and I will very vocally tell everyone I know to never ever go to this office.
