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.

This office is horrible. The staff is rude and they are not helpful at all. Instead of handling a patients call, they hang up on you. Dr. Chokshi is a decent doctor but his staff is awful. I have never had a phone call returned and instead have to drive to office to get an appointment scheduled. It’s worth driving further away to deal with better staff that aren’t sitting on their cell phones instead of helping customers.

Dr. Chokshi did my neck surgery and I've felt like a different person ever since. He answered all of my questions in a way I could understand.

Dr Chokshi diagnosed my back problem very quickly and gave me his medical opinion on correcting it. Dr Chokshi and his medical staff were very professional and my back issue has been corrected.The hospital stay at Mcleod hospital in Florence South Carolina was the best experience that I have had for a surgical procedure. I am extremely satisified with the entire process.
