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.

He misdiagnosed my condition and If I had not signed myself out of East Orange General and went to Beth Israel I could have been dead. I wasted 3 days when I needed emergency surgery

My mom is a patient at this office and there is very poor patient coordination in regards to medical clearance for surgery, sending lab results to her cardiologist and overall management of care. The office staff can be very abrupt and nonchalant about your concerns.

Waited two hours to be seen as new patient. Dr. Ganesh states that he is not an internal medicine doctor and he only specializes in kidney related conditions. This is not a good internal medicine or family doctor. You should keep looking to avoid wasted time. Office is in very poor condition.
