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.

Alok Listens well and shows genuine concern and is knowledgeable and professional.

This is the worst primary care doctor I've ever had! He gave me incorrect medical information which caused me to suffer a major decline in my health. He insisted on a ridiculous number of appointments all to check my blood pressure which caused me undue stress as well as time and money. The last appointment was completely unnecessary since it was simply to change my medication. He had all of my numbers. He had the information he needed to change my medication, but he insisted on seeing me he yet again (costing me more time, money and anxiety) simply to handwrite a prescription that he could have filled without seeing me. The new medication he put me on made me very ill but I was too afraid to call and discuss my symptoms because it would have resulted in more unnecessary appointments. His way of managing high blood pressure is to frighten the patient, thus, causing a dangerous rise in blood pressure! He actually told me I should be worried but refused to treat my anxiety.
