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 the biggest waste of time. She barely did anything and decided my nodule did not need a biopsy because of a .01 cm difference between what i had and protocol even though I am experiencing very strong symptoms. I left and will not be going back to this clinic because of her. I would recommend staying away- she seems concerned with extreme cases and not moderate, treatable cases.

I have been seeing Dr. Srivatsa for about 14 years. She has always been a compassionate and caring physician. She is very thorough and always listens to my concerns. My lab results are always available in a timely fashion. I couldn't imagine having to change doctors, she has remained such an important part of my healthcare. I highly recommend her.

I have been seeing Dr. Srivatsa for the past three years following a thyroidectomy I had while living in Phoenix. She completed my post cancer care and has been monitoring me since then. I travel 2 1/2 hours each way to see her because she has been such an effective and truly kind doctor. I highly recommend.

After Dr. David Propp my physician referred me to Dr. Sumathi Srivatsa for treatment of my diabetics, I went to her. I was under her treatment for diabetic more than 6 years. Initially I had very high A1C and under her treatment with workout and diet my A1C came down quite a bit.

Dr. Srivatsa is such a great doctor, with a wonderful "bedside" manner. She's attentive, thorough and takes the time to listen to my concerns and answer all of my questions. I never feel rushed when I'm in the exam room with her. Lab results are always available in a timely manner. I'm so pleased to have her as my Endocrinologist.

I was stunned when I read the two poor reviews of Dr. Srivatsa. I've been her patient for 20+ years and have NEVER experienced her in this manner. Not only does she listen to what I have to say, she asks questions about things I wouldn't have thought about. She's professional, caring, knowledgeable, and I know for a fact that she takes input from other doctors. Impatient? Hardly. Rude? Inconceivable. I can only think that someone reviewed the wrong doctor.

Dr Srivatsa was insulting, patronising and completely unwilling to consider anything beyond cursory blood work. Unless your problems can be easily diagnosed by a med student in her office, you should go to a different doctor. She disregarded everything I told her, including direct input from my GP. She won't even listen to another MD! Truly a horrible doctor.

Dr. Srivatsa was abrupt, rude, uncaring and didn't explain problems or appear to care about my Mother, Clara Vinson. It is very difficult to understand the Doctor's speech. She rushed thru the appt, just got up and walked out the door. We waited, thinking she was coming back, but she didn't return. We need to make another doctor's appt, so we can get the answers to my Mother's problems. My Mother should not have to pay for this appt, and we need an appt with another Endocringologist who can help
