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. Iyer is a lovely man; however, office staff did not explain costs well and services provided were not what I expected and results were not as expected. Although he seems to be a competent doctor, I will not be visiting his practice again for cosmetic purposes.

I used to go to Dr. Iyer all of the time. He is a phenomenal doctor. Very quick to get down to the core problem and suggest options for moving forward. After not seeing him for 1 year, I called the office to make an appointment. They said that they don't accept New patients. I told them I've been to him many many times before and they said that since he started a new practice, I would be considered a new patient and could not accept me. Would not recommend contacting them anymore.

Dr. Lyer's understanding and use of laser treatments was spot on correct. The care and treatment of my mom was incredible.
