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.

I didnt have a good experience with Dr. Bakshi. I felt she was too interested in selling me a CPAC. I told her I didnt want a CPAC but she ordered one for me anyway. I was not there for a sleeping disorder. I was there for breathing problems during the day. I felt she never really focused on my problem. I was disappointed with Dr. Bakshi.
