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.

HORRIBLE DOCTOR
This “doctor” is very rude and unprofessional. He treats staff as if they are nothing but dirt. He shows no empathy as he only sees his patients as a dollar sign. STAY AWAY FROM THIS SO CALLED DOCTOR HE IS HORRIBLE.

Dr. Richard Faraday is an outstanding infectious disease specialist. I honestly do not understand why he has mostly negative reviews on Google; he did an amazing job. As it turns out, I was suffering from an obscure case of C. difficile colitis. C. difficile colitis is a gastrointestinal infection. All other infectious disease specialists and physicians I went to brushed off my symptoms as being "all in my head" even though I took pictures to prove my symptoms were real. Furthermore, many doctors gave me at-home treatment advice which actually worsened my symptoms. Because my symptoms lasted for years, I had ultimately come to terms with the fact that my physically and mentally debilitating symptoms may last forever. Dr. Faraday, unlike other doctors, took the time to meet with me and thoroughly investigate my symptoms. He ordered all the right tests to finally reach a conclusion within the span of 3 visits, and he discovered my condition is indeed curable. I am on medication now and feeling much better. Thanks to Dr. Faraday, I am hopeful that I can take control of and live my life again. I doubt any other infectious disease specialist would have done as well as he did. Thank you, Dr. Faraday!

Dr. Faraday dedicates extra time during appointments to thoroughly explain all important matters in depth with detail. He's answered many questions i've had about my health that other doctors ignored!

I have been seeing Dr. Faraday for years and so far he is the best doctor I ever had. He is always very well prepared for the appointments and follows up in every little detail or issues discussed in previous appointments. I am very glad I found him several years ago when I moved down to SoCal - FS in DP

Dr Faraday knowledge and care exceeded our expectations. I am a very complicated patient with multiple medical issues to consider and his disposition and professionalism to work with multiple disciplines makes possible the best medical care for me. He is a thinker and an analytical doctor. I know that if he is involved all doctors, nurses and medical staff will be hold accountable and give their very best, because he will question and look into everything. I highly recommend him. Thank You Dr.

After calling 32 infectious disease specialists when my brother was in rapid decline from a life-threatening infection, Dr. Faraday was the ONLY DOCTOR to ever returned my call. He then listened carefully, requested medical documents to be immediately faxed over, and got us in to see him (before office hours) 2 days later! He took my brother's case extremely seriously and went above and beyond to get us the critical procedures and treatment in record time that ultimately saved my brothers life

Dr. Faraday is the best! He is unbelievably intelligent and thorough. He has been helping me for a couple years now. I am unable to take 99% of antibiotics and he guides me thru that. Also I had had CDiff and he is the expert on this. He's just wonderful.

Very thorough doctor. I feel that he has my best interests when I see him. He directs 100 percent of his attention on his patients. When he advises something you can feel certain he has research to back up his statements.
