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.

Dr. Sharma treated me for a serious issue, and I recovered due to her careful treatment of my case. She was always considerate of my needs and wishes and an excellent monitor of my health, even contacting me at home when problems arose in lab results. She is a good listener, offers alternatives and genuinely cares about her patients. I feel very lucky to have had her as my physician and would return to her if other problems occur.

The best doctor I ever had. Caring, professional, dedicated, resourceful, kind, and above all she really cares. I simply think she is the best doctor. I am so glad I am under her care. I will not trade her for any one else period. I also like to mention that her staff is equally caring, dedicated and helpful. Lisa is amazing, Chuck is super cool as well as the rest of them in Dr. Sharma's office. Very glad and happy about the way they do business in this office. Luis Aparicio.

Dr. Sharma was my Infectious Disease Doctor while I was in the hospital for a severe blood infection. As well as follow-up visits at her office. The care I received from Dr. Sharma was by far the best I've received from any ID doctor; and the staff at Lakeshore Infectious Disease Associates is friendly and most professional.

Without resorting to hyperbole, this doctor is the most dishonest person I’ve ever dealt with. She would agree to a course of treatment and then reverse herself, saying that she never agreed in the first instance. Other doctors on the hospitals staff questioned the efficacy of her diagnoses and treatment. I have had occasion to deal with many doctors in my life, but I have never had one who disgraced the profession like Dr. Sharma. Run don’t walk away from this doctor

I met Dr Sharma through an emergency room visit . I was referred to her and the practice of Lakeshore Infectious Diseases. I have been to her office more than any doctor in my lifetime due to the nature of my infections. Dr Sharma was WONDERFUL! She was kind , caring and a fantastic listener , not to mention one of the finest doctors I have ever met. If you would ever happen to need a doctor in this specialty, Dr Sharma is the finest there is! Sincerely Melissa

I've been a client of Dr. Sharma for 3+ years and delighted with her management of my health care. She's extremely professional, personable, and very experienced. Each visit I'm greeted with a smile, promptly attended to by her staff and herself, she takes time to review and provide a professional update or opinion about my health care and makes sound recommendations. 2015-2016 I worked in Utah and flew back/forth to Chicago to see her so she could continue my care. That's how awesome she is!!!!

Never have I come across such a rude, dishonest & unprofessional doctor. She talked over me constantly, wouldn't let me finish explaining, then rushed me out of her office. She made all sorts of notes in my chart which were false & unwarranted, implying my condition was imagined. She falsified my exam: never performed a full physical, but naturally still billed insurance for all of it. She's lucky I didn't report the false exam to the state medical licensing board & internal medicine board.
