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. Kandola was my primary physician for about 3 years. I tried my best to stay with her as a patient, but she never seemed to listen to me and often rushed our appointments. The whole 3 years that she was my doctor, she refused to acknowledge any of my symptoms. She made me feel crazy and unheard. I was experiencing severe muscle weakness, extreme blurry vision, droopy eyelids, and difficulty eating and breathing due to the muscles in my throat constantly closing. My condition deteriorated till I lost all mobility and she never believed me. I finally had to find a new doctor -one who would actually listen to me. My new doctor was able to figure out what was wrong with me. It turned out, it was not in my head, I’m not crazy… I have Myasthenia Gravis, a disease that causes extreme muscle failure. This is a REAL disease that has no cure. Luckily there is treatment for it and I’m finally on my way to getting better. I only wish I had switched doctors sooner.
