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.

He is very caring, attentive and always answers all my questions. Dr. Rahman never makes me feel like my concerns don’t matter. He was my pediatrician and I always felt safe and cared for. I 100% recommended him.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Rahman?
Not sure who the male Dr. was, Rahman or other in his Staff. My daughter was seen recently for cold symptoms and questions were asked about possible symptoms of anorexia. The Dr. kept arguing with my wife that the current underweight was 'normal' and talked about weight numbers; he also conveyed that not everybody was supposed to be over the weight as he pointed to my wife. The weight measures should have been addressed privately, NOT in front of a possible anorexic child. The overweight point is prejudicial and unprofessional and again and NOT to be mentioned in front of a possible anorexic child. This is the worst medical arrogancy I have ever seen. We have now to deal with his statements my child integrated in a ir/rationale for anorexia.

Dr. Rahman is the best. There is no other peditrician like him. He cares so much about his patients, and takes his time with each one. The wait is a little long , but its all worth it. I love Dr. Rahman he was my peditrician as a child, and now Im proud to say he's my babies doctor. Thank you Dr. Rahman for your time, and dedication.

Doctor Rahman was my doctor since I was born so when I had my baby I decided that he would be her doctor as well. He is very knowledgeable and explains everything to me He makes sure that my baby is totally fine. The only thing I really dislike about his office is that it is hard to make an appointment for the times I want and the wait is horrible. I'll wait in the waiting room for about 2 to 3 hours and wait about another hour or two in the back.
