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.

Dr. Kumar made me believe I was on the brink of having a heart attack. He had no ekg from a previous office visit to compare with the most recent one and claimed my blood pressure was high. But he wouldn’t tell me what it was. He did 3 ekgs in that office visit, ripping my clothes open. He seemed confused and panicked. This was 3 days before Christmas and he wanted me to go in the hospital. It ruined the holidays for me that year—-I didn’t know how to tell my family. 2nd opinion nixed it
