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 and knowledgeable
Dr. Kalache is the best nephrologist I’ve seen. She’s very knowledgeable and has wonderful bedside manner. She takes the time to truly understand her patients and is quick to communicate. I’d highly recommend her to anyone!

Best doctor in the East Coast
I went to see doctor Safa for a routine kidney check up and not only she was very attentive but she was also able to discover I had a type of autoimmune deficiency. This autoimmune deficiency had been missed by various prior primary care doctors. I owe Dr. Kalache my thanks for the care and going above and beyond for me.

My mother wanted a second option/transfer of care from a physician in Mount Sinai. When attempting to make an appointment was told BY FRONT DESK that Dr. Kalache DOES NOT WANT TO SEE HER because another already saw her, then proceeded to hang up on me. WHAT!! This is a second option and transfer of care HOW DARE YOU. This is NON ETHICAL and poor staff manners to say the least. So disappointed. poor representation of what this MD could have been. We will take our service elsewhere to an MD that actually wants to see new patients.
