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.

Wonderful
Dr. Jay is the most caring doctor I've ever encountered. I can't thank him enough for all he has done for my mother. He is an excellent doctor.

Compassionate Surgeon
Dr Jeganathan is hands-down one of the best colorectal surgeons in the area. His demeanor and bed-side manner is calm, positive, thorough, attentive, flexible, and personal. I saw him in the ER for a very personal situation in which he made me feel comfortable and relaxed. I find that doctors usually are distracted or rushed when visiting their patients, especially in the ER, but not with Dr J. I had the sense that this doctor REALLY cared about my whole being and not just the fact that I needed an urgent procedure. It is for this reason that I give him 5 stars! I would definitely recommend Dr. J to anyone that values their health and wants a doctor that’s compassionate, empowering, and a true. I greatly appreciate all that he has done for me thus far, and look forward to working with him for any future care. Thanks Dr.J!

Saved my life
Was brought to Good Sam through the ER and had emergency surgery by Dr.Jeganathan. Within an hour of arriving he diagnosed my illness and had me in the Operating Room for surgery. He really did save my life and I’m so thankful he was in the ER that day. Skilled, thorough, and one of the best doctors I have ever been to. Look no more. He’s the absolute best there is!

I would recommend Dr. Jeganathan to anybody. His constant attention and care _ and optimism/faith _ helped me through a difficult surgery and major complications. He never allowed me to fall into the clutches of pessimism or doubt.

Literally the best Dr. you could ask for. Answers all questions and it really feels like he cares. He did a major surgery on me, and he has made this process very easy for me and my husband.
