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 have been suffering from asthma my whole life, and when I moved to this area it got worse. In the last 5 months, I have spiraled. Because I wasn't dying, every Pulmonologist I saw I was either unable to get any appointments sooner than 6 months out or wrote me off entirely. Dr. Venkat actually spent an hour with me and my husband and really listened to us, and helped us begin to problem-solve this. He also got me in to see him as a new patient in 2 days. I love this doctor. He truly cares.

Very rude need to learn to be more passionate. Needs to learn better english. Thinks everyone need to be hooked on oxygen. Informed me my employer would let me work with oxygen. I don't know what would be lives in but most job won't let u use oxygen at work. No work no insurance no pay his high price bill..Turn me against lung specialists. I had no problem with Dr. Marsh so sad he left. He was a great doctor
