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.

Longest wait
My father sees this doctor. He routinely makes his patients wait upwards of an hour. Today, my father, who has alzheimers and lives in a skilled nursing facility, had an 11:30 appointment just to get his pacemaker checked. He was finally seen by Dr. Tarigopula at 2:30. Ridiculous. Zero appreciation for anyone's time.

Dr. Tarigopula has the personality that makes one feel very comfortable. He takes the time to thoroughly explain to the patient his cardiac condition in terms the lay person can understand. Over the years I have seen several cardiologists and I have to say Dr. Tarigopula is the best and most thorough I have encountered. The profession needs more Doctores like him as do the patients who benefit from his extensive expertise.
