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.

When I went to see him in Boston, I knew immediately that he was the surgeon I needed.. he did not sugarcoat anything, was very realistic and made me feel comfortable.. the surgery was a success and I'm cancer free at the 6 month point.. my family and I were so pleased to have been fortunate enough to have him relocate to the Dana-Farber Cancer Center.. thanks for everything Dr. Uppaluri ??
