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.

Not a good experience.

Dr Lakireddy is an attentive listener and hears what you have to say. He is not a pill pusher and relies on the patient to follow guidelines to get off medication if possible. He has a good personality and is extremely intelligent. I would recommend Dr. Lakireddy to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, trustworthy, and positive medical professional.
