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. Loomba is quite knowledgeable about the condition I was referred to him for. I received a standard packet of information prepared by him, and he went through it to discuss my particular preliminary diagnosis with a bit of detail and the how to move forward in assessment and treatment. This was my first visit, so we shall see how this will play out over time.

I was sent to Dr. Loomba when an unrelated abdominal ultrasound indicated that I had a fatty liver. In my treatment, Dr. Loomba utilized state-of-the-art imaging and laboratory tests to help diagnose me and provide a plan for action. I also worked with his research group who works to develop less-invasive ways to diagnose liver disease using imaging and other non-surgical methods. Thankfully I was on a good road to recovery and his kind words and immense knowledge helped me get to a path that is sustainable for me.

Dr. Loomba is a fantastic provider. He is thorough, spends time with his patients, and clearly cares about a growing area of concern in medicine: fatty liver disease. I have been seeing Dr. Loomba for the past three-four years and he has consistently followed up with me and is always available to answer questions. Additionally, I participate in a research team led by his lab. They are thorough, understanding, and competent. You will not find a better hepatology team.
