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.

Excellent Doctor!!!

I had an excellent visit Dr. Shukula. She took the time to listen and was thorough in her care. I felt heard and cared for. I can see why she has 5 star ratings. Weil Cornell is an excellent health care provider. I have had excellent experiences with all of the doctors at Weill Cornell.

Dr. Shukla is highly qualified, very thorough, caring and compassionate. I have been followed by her for approximately 2 years and she has seen me through some very challenging periods in my life. She always treated me with dignity, respect, and utmost care. More important she didn’t allow me to give up in my journey of a lifetime. I am forever endebted. I feel like aside from having an excellent doctor that I have a true friend who has my best interest at heart. I highly recommend Dr. Shukla to any patient who is seeking her care.
