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.

Careless doctor
I found the doctor and staffs approach to be careless which left the patient feeling frustrated and in critical condition. After being her patient for years we felt that the doctor were dismissive of my concerns and did not take the time to fully listen to my symptoms. the lack of attention to my medical history and current medications further compounded my unease about doctor care. After calling many times for weeks couldn’t get appointment with the doctor. So we had to go to another clinic. I understand that medical professionals are human and can make mistakes, but I expect a higher level of professionalism and attentiveness from a doctor. The worst experience we ever had. Don’t bother yourself with this doctor.

Great Nephrologist
I have been a patient of Dr. Chander for going on two years, now and have found her to be an incredibly competent nephrologist, who CARES about her patients. She takes sufficient time with her patients and LISTENS and treats kidney issues without overprescribing medications. She keeps current on new practices and it shows in her great care. And she explains things in lay terms necessary for understanding by non medical people.

Dr Chander is far and away the BEST physician of any specialty we have ever known. She always took as much time as we deemed necessary. She even has called us at home between appointments to check on us. Best bedside manner anyone could hope for. Highly recommend to anyone.

Dr. Chander is very special. When nearly everybody gave me up for dead with a very serious combination of sepsis and various other deadly infections, she did an extraordinary job of seeing me through some 30 days in the ICU. I owe her big time!

Dr Chander is personable (a necessary but infrequently found quality in a physician) professional, and practical in her approach. She can be to the point without offending or scaring. You know she's not going to cure you as the disease is incurable, but you know you're in the hands of an expert manager who's going to make your life as good as it's going to get.

Extremely knowledgeable and caring doctor. Makes the patient feel comfortable coming to the doctor's office. Can explain conditions and treatments in words any patient can understand without the patient feeling as though they are being "talked down to" or lectured. Instills patient confidence that they are in the best hands possible.
