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.

Just saying HI!!
Dr Vakili was one of the best physicians I worked with for the 29 years at the General division and Christiana Care. I may be late expressing this...BUT... Happy Retirement!! Hope all is well!!

The women that work at the front desk are very rude and Dr. Vakili can be very harsh when you aren’t understanding of his methods. I wish I never went here! Would definitely not recommend. Luckily enough he’s retiring.

I was repeatedly interrupted by Dr. Vakili while he took my history; I was unable to give a complete medical history, as a result. I would recommend someone NOT go to Dr. Vakili, as he asked me an unprofessional question and I have no way of knowing whether or not he was joking; this was my first visit.
