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.

Quick diagnosis
I had been having issue for some time with bad taste in mout, regurgitating food, coughing, clearing throat and told other doctors. Dr Tami diagnosis my problem in 5 minutes. He recommended swallow test and Dr. Sean Lewis. I underwent surgery and my problems were resolved. I would highly recommend each of these excellent physicians.

I saw Dr. Tami after a spinal testing procedure. I was miserable. The anethesiologist kept saying I had a sinus infection. Dr. Tami examinined me and said I did not and confirmed the diagnosis with a sinus cat scan to verify it to the anesthesiologist. He called me at home to make sure that the anesthesiologist was going to give me blood patch and said that he would call him for me if necessary. He went above and beyond to help me.
