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.

Most caring and understanding Dr. I have had had.
I have been a new patient of Dr. Valji for a few months now, and have no complaints whatsoever. He does not wear a white coat, sits right beside me & listens and takes his time with me. No rush, although I know he has so many other patients waiting for him. Best bedside manners, with true concern for my best care. He refers me to the specialists I have needed, without even requesting. I am almost 46, so he knew where I needed to go. He goes above and beyond any other Dr I have ever been a patient of, or worked with. He is also my youngest son’s Dr, and we have the upmost respect for his way of listening, advice, and offers honest and wise decisions, medically and personally. Great man, Doctor or not. Truly sympathetic human. We need more Doctors like him in the field.
