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.

Excellent doctor! Highly recommend!
Dr. Nagaraj was introduced to me in the emergency room after I was admitted for acute cholecystitis and it was recommended that my gallbladder was removed. Dr. Nagaraj has excellent bedside manner and explained everything clearly to me regarding the surgery I was about to undergo. As I was put under anesthesia, Dr. Nagaraj continued to talk to me about what was going on and made me feel very calm. Afterwards, when I woke up, it was explained that there was a very rare, minor complication during my surgery and that there wasn’t anything to worry about. The day after the surgery, Dr. Nagaraj visited me and made sure my recovery was progressing well. A few more days later, Dr. Nagaraj was able to take out my surgical drain in-office and also talked me through what was going on. Overall, I am extremely happy with the level of care I have been given by Dr. Nagaraj and her team.

Dr. Nagaraj did my emergency colostomy. I have only had one incident in 5 years and she was right there. It was only an overnight hospital stay but she is always so pleasant and lets you know what is going on.

Saw Dr. N for gallbladder surgery appt in the office. She was so nice, explained everything in detail, made me feel comfortable and the most impressive to me was that she did not rush me at all. She took all the time I needed before our appt ended and even worked with me on scheduling surgery on a day that was best for me. She will perform my surgery next week and I have full confidence everything will be great.

Dr. Nagaraj and her assistant Kim were simply magnificent. I needed an appt for a rather embarrassing situation. Dr. Nagaraj explained everything in full detail and including the different methods of treatment. She advised the least invasive due the length of recovery, but after I explained my fear of recurrence she got to it and the procedure went perfectly. They both comforted me and had amazing bedside manner. Hats off to Comm. Care Physicians for treating my issue right away. THANKS??
