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.

very unhappy with vein bypass surgery
Dr. Kochupura told me that surgery would clear up my circulation issue and everything would be normal. Surgery took an extra 2 hours. Was told that there would only be 2 or maybe three incisions. There ended up being 5. Never told me that there was only a 50% or less chance of it working until it didn't due to scar tissue.. Doctor never checked about my ability to form scar tissue. His solution to the issue was do another surgery, and no guarantees that it would work. Just had my 6 month follow up and he didn't see me. Had a PA see me. His lack of due diligence is very concerning. My discomfort, pain level is the same or worse than before he performed the surgery.
