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.

Always late and doesn’t respect patient time
I have seen Kulkarni multiple times and he is usually 45 minutes -1.5 hours late. The most recent appt I had scheduled at 7:30, I was seen and left in the room by the nurse at 7:32 and waited until 8:32 for Kulkarni to come in. Very unprofessional and frustrating to need to be at an appt early to have a 10 minute appt run an hour late

Dr. Kulkarni, has a very excellent patient care manner. He is thorough, kind, offers the best information to his patient. He has treated my MIL for 8-10 years. She will be 92. Is healthy, mobile and active. Thank you! He should have 5 stars.

I would not recommend Dr.Kulkarni. He performed two ablations on me over a period of three years. My heart continued to be in and out of rhythym. In 2017 I had a third ablation at another well known hospital. When I returned for my three month followup the new doctor told me " I would not consider this your third ablation but rather your first after seeing what had been done by Dr.Kulkarni". Quite a shock to have a docter say that. My heart has been in rhythym eleven months without .medication
