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.

Not impressed at all!
This doctor is not a listener. He automatically assumes everything at glance. I think he has his favorites. Doesn't read reports from specialist in regards to care. I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis by a specialist. I can't take any . Ibuprofen also suffer with arthritis. I'm not a doctor, but he prescribed everything the Gastroenterologist said not to take because it causes stomach bleeding. On my last visit he didn't check anything, just asked if I need refills two of which are 800 mg ibuprofen and ibuprofen for arthritis. They only reason I knew that I wasn't supposed to take those was because the Gastroenterologist mentioned not taking those. I asked him did he get the report that I couldn't take those meds? He then an only then looked at the report Then said he couldn't do anything regarding my arthritis. I'm not a doctor but I'm sure there are other meds for arthritis that don't have ibuprofen in them.

I had an appointment but when I called to make certain if I needed to call before coming I then discovered an appointment was never scheduled I will say how very upset I know for a fact that his staff has been replaced several times very frequently b/c family do see him. This is a reflection on the Dr. He also has an issue with ppl that have to much pain management b/c I am on 2 types by same Dr.

I was a patient of Dr. Chandra"s for several years, after being asked about my diabetes which I was never informed I had and never given medication for it. Also personal information was being left on the counter for any and everyone to see I became very apprehensive and worried about my well being. I changed doctors and was immediately diagnosed with type 2 diabetes along with other complicated. Doing much better now. Would I recommend him, absolutely not. Disconnected from patients.
