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 will not recommend Dr. Jay to any of my friends or family based on my own negative experiences after over 4 years.

Dr. Naidu was amazing from the moment I walked through the door! He got me right back on track after my dr retired and I had to find a new dr I was extremely nervous, but Dr. Naidu put me at ease and got me right where I was supposed to be, it felt like I didn’t miss a beat, and I am a creature of habit and don’t like change. Anybody looking for a new dr I totally recommend dr. Naidu!

I have been visiting his office for about 3 years and he knows nothing about me. He'll essentially prescribe anything I think I need, it seems. I thought I might have ADHD and he quickly wrote me a prescription for Adderall. I was on that for about 8 months and told him I wasn't sure it was working and he said to go ahead an stop. Zero questions. He rarely looks me in the eye. He also stood me up when I was 15 minutes late after I'd called and said I would be late. Avoid.

When I began seeing Dr. Naidu, I was experiencing intense waves of nonstop anxiety. I couldn't lay down in my bed to sleep, I couldn't sit down in chairs without having to stand up, let alone have a conversation with somebody. I saw him for seven years or so, and now Im doing well in my life without any anxiety feeling good again. I can live the life I always wanted to live thanks in part to him, and to myself for taking his medical advice.

STAY AWAY from this man. If you go to Presence Sherman Hospital in Elgin, make sure he is not involved in your treatment. He walked in a day late, I was recovering from a horrific reaction to a prescription drug, and began to berate me, call me a drug addict, blamed my traumatized spouse for my condition, and then insisted I stay additional days in bed. His flippant and unprofessional behavior did nothing but add to my bills. And he had the audacity to give me his card!

I've been seeing him for months. He doesn't care about me at all!! He doesn't even care if I go without medication!! He won't help me at all unless I check myself into the hospital and get off all my meds. I am in a deep depression now and he is unwilling to help me with it. I was seeing a wonderful women named dr gandiraj. Now because I got a second opinion I can't go back to her. The office won't let me. I would NEVER recommend him to ANYONE unless u want to feel helpless and alone!!

Worst Dr. I have ever been to. In the past my Pyschologist would spend at least 15 minutes to touch base since theirs typically two months between visits. I was their 5 minutes. He doesn't even know me. Even on the first visit I was only their a short time. Just a pill pusher. Charged 250 for 5 minutes. Also hard to understand. I am falling back into my depression since seeing him. Don't waste your money.

You have to be very informed about what has worked for you in the past otherwise he will keep recommending the same medications but in different doses.
