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.

Wonderful physician...helped me with my 30 years of chronic pain....no more surgeries...

Dr. Bathla has been one off the best and nicest Drs I’ve had the honor of being under the care of. He’s concerned about addiction as well as pain. He has given me Botox shots in my neck for years and has treated me with utmost respect and compassion.

I was looking for a new Dr. as my previous one had just retired and shut down her practice. These guys were in network so I gave them a try. When I arrived I couldn't get in because the girl at the front desk was ignoring me. The visit still took almost 2 hours with the vast majority of the time sitting snd waiting. The "Doctor" didn't even bother to see me. They did feel the need to discriminate and profile me anyway for good measure.
