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.

So easy to talk to.
Dr Shaikh is personable, and persistent with helping you resolve your health concern.

Dr. Sheikh is very personable. She is for you! She is very kind. I felt extremely comfortable with her and quite able to be myself. This made it easy for me to dialogue about my health concerns. I am sorry she no longer will be my pcp because she will work on a specific new goal in medicine.
