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.

Her tone with me was condescending both times I had to speak with her. The medical advice she gave me was described by another doctor to be "conservative to a fault." I hope I do not have to see her again. Other doctors/residents in Jefferson Labor and Delivery are much more friendly and reasonable.

Dr. Sandra Dayaratna was very unprofessional during my family member visit. She validated the rights of the patient and misguided information concerning images that was diagnosed by other doctors and proceeded to covered it up by saying that all of the test was normal. When she showed the report on computer it showed some abnormalities which became very concerning that she didn’t read the most recent report before coming in the room. After a short while she ask me to step out the room without asking the adult patient to make the decision for their self or consent to have the medical student in the room which is protocol. After removing myself from the patient room she proceeded to ask my family member very uncomfortable questions about me and my family. There was no indication of any sort to approach the patient in such a humiliating manner. I was truly taken away that this happened. This should never happen to anyone.

She found my diagnosis after I went to three other doctors who didn't help me. Ran late but probably because very thorough. As she said she gives each patient the time they need.

I would definitely recommend her to my friends and family. She spent time and explained everything to me. Through her knowledge and confidence she reassured me everything was going to be ok.

Loved her. Thorough in the office. Did a good job on my hysterectomy. Told me how I was going to feel after the surgery and did not mince words.
