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.
Exceptional in every way. The promptness, efficiency, skill, staff and Dr. Ahari were most impressive! I would highly recommend!

I would recommend Dr Ahari and staff to anyone. He has been very patient and understanding during all of my treatment for breast cancer. I never felt rushed during my appointments. Dr Ahari called me personally with test results eliminating back and forth phone calls. My opinion and concerns were always taken into consideration during my treatment.
