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.

Exceptional Clarity and Bedside Manner
I recently saw Dr. Kothari for a GI issue, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. She was super thorough in her explanations, making sure I really understood what was going on and what steps we needed to take next.What really stood out was how comfortable she made me feel. She encouraged all my questions and took the time to answer them clearly and patiently. Her friendly and approachable manner made a HUGE difference. I left feeling confident and well-informed about my treatment plan. Highly recommend!

Great Doctor
Dr. Kothari is an excellent GI. She listened to what was going on with me and took my symptoms seriously. She scheduled an endoscopy to follow up right away. She was kind, courteous, and professional.

I have always had trouble communicating with my doctor. She claims she has regularly not received my messages. The first time was questions related to scheduling a procedure and its instructions. I could not reach her and missed the appt. I did not see her when I finally showed up for the procedure. Since then, I have called 2x and emailed and have never had a return call re: the status of my results. I am a nurse practitioner and have been responsible for physician training at a major hospital. This is no way any patient should be treated
