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.

She is a wonderful physician
Dr. Ujwala Desai is a loving and caring physician who spends time listening to her patients. After months of not seeing her she still remembered that my mother passed away and gave me a big hug. She is a truly good doctor with a very rare specialty; kindness.

I would rate her as 10/10! I have never found a doctor who treated me the way she'd want to be treated. She was seriously the best doctor I've had, kind, patient, non judgmental and seemed to genuinely care! Thank you!
