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.

Disappointed. The back office must be a shambles because the info sent was MIA. I WAS PAWNED OFF ON FELLOWS when I had serious concerns that weren't addressed elsewhere. I thought I was getting one of the best and he didn't even have the knowledge that I did about treatment. He just parroted the surgical treatment for me with total disregard of my unique situation. I had serious concerns that were not addressed. I felt ignored and like an assembly line patient. If Keswani is just going to ride his reputation then he isn't a doctor anymore but an out of date hack. He could have at least answered my concerns with real effort. So much went on and I still don't have any answers to my questions. No answers and a referral yet I still have no confidence in his recommendation. I was coming from the same poor treatment elsewhere and looking for real hard answers not platitudes and excuses. He wasted a week of precious time and my efforts to get him information.

Dr. Keswani was thoroughly professional and knowledgeable and made sure both my wife and I understood the report he gave us at the end of the procedure. I could not have been more pleased with his sense of caring and concern.

Dr. Keswani is part of my medical care team as a result of his reviewing my history and existing complications that he found he had an answer to after many other doctors reviewing my case did not. He was able to solve an ongoing problem that was becoming a more frequent distraction impacting the quality of my life. He has very kind bedside manners takes time to be sure I understand healthcare situation.

I just had a large complex polypectomy completed endoscopically by Dr. Keswani. After the procedure he explained exactly what he had done and answered all of our questions. He did a great job. No post op bleeding, pain or infection. He contacted me on My Chart 2 days later with the biopsy results and follow up info. He is a highly skilled, very personable physician that I would definitely recommend.

Dr. Keswani is certainly one of the best physicians I’ve ever had. He allayed any fears I had, was very personable, completed my difficult Colonoscopy without a problem, sent check-ins through Healthloops and I would highly recommend him.

I saw Dr. Keswani for a colonoscopy. I had terrible experiences in the past and therefore sought out an expert in the field. I was so fortunate to have had the procedure with Dr. Keswani. He did a great job of communicating with me and took the time to listen to my questions. He was so gentle and the procedure went very well. He also made sure to send a copy of my results to my primary care doctor. Dr. Keswani has the perfect combination of compassion, intelligence, and masterful skills.

Would NEVER recommend this doctor. I wanted to speak to him before the surgery, he would only communicate thru his nurse. He treated me like the next item on his agenda the morning of the surgery not like a patient. I had minor complications of bleeding 3 days after and again never picked up the phone to talk to me. He communicated thru someone in his office. I was told to go to the emergency room. Today it is 3 weeks since the procedure and I had to call again to ask for results.
