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.

This was my first visit to Dr. Kunaparaju after dismal treatment from my former nephrologist. Dr. Kunaparaju is also an internist and he looked at my whole health history and was able to piece together how various medications (prescription and over-the-counter) along with other health factors contributed to my kidney and anemia problems. He was very thorough and listened carefully. Took his time and is very knowledgeable. Excellent doctor.

A year ago Dr Kunaparaju literally saved my husbands life. He was able to immediately diagnose my husband with the rare and difficult to diagnose disease, Al Amyloidosis. The key to survival is early detection. Unfortunately, this disease is often missed until it is quite advanced. Dr Kunaparaju is a rare combination of intelligence and compassion and my husband and I highly recommend him.
