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.

RECENT INPT ADMISSION UNIT 41 WITH CHRISTUS/OSCNER FACILITY. DR. NEELEM VERY ATTENTIVE, GREAT BED SIDE MANNER, INFORMS & COMMUNICATES VERY CLEARLY ON AN ILL FEELING INDIVIDUAL AT THEIR TIME OF SICNESS. VERY GOOD LISTENER & STRIVES FOR QUESTIONS TO BE ASKED OF HIM.. WOULD BE GREAT IF HE WOULD BECOME A CHRISTUS /OSCNER PCP PHYSICIAN.

Dr. Neelam is a very good listener. He is very patient and knowledgeable. During my last two hospital stays, he was involved in my care. I feel better knowing that there are physicians like him around to care for the sick.
