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.

Came for a sinus infection and was so glad that she took time to explain and give preventive advice. At first I was upset because she wouldn’t give me a steroid shot that I asked for but Dr Goyal looked at the “whole picture of me” and took time to educate me with compassion and good analogies so I feel more empowered about my overall health and sinuses especially. Wish she practiced full time

I have been seen by Dr. Goyal several times. She is friendly and courteous and has been a wonderful help. She actually listens to patients and doesn’t just prescribe pills.

Dr. Goyal ordered the appropriate tests and medical practice, so that was good. However, when I needed help on what to do next, she became stern in tone, condescending to me, and talked down to me, in part as if I was was wasting her time. I think she forgets that navigating the medical system is confusing to a lot of people. I want a doctor who doesn't treat me like at number; she could have at least had a nice tone. I don't want to see her again.
