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. Thakor has been my primary physician for over 20 yrs. She is easy to talk to and listens to your concerns. She doesn't rush you out of the office like some doctors do. She is very thorough with her examinations. I love Dr. Thakor even though it's hard to get an appointment in a hurry.

Dr Thakor has been my primary care physician for 20+ years. Her diagnosis has been accurate in diagnosing adult onset acne to requiring a cervical fusion and everything in between. Although it may sometimes be hard to get an appointment because she is so favored by her patients, I wouldn't dream of going to anyone else for my care.
