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.

Disappointingly uncaring and unresponsive
As an established patient, I messaged Dr. Ghorbani about some disturbingly high test results my primary doctor discovered during a routine visit. Under the primary’s advice and “referral to a specialist,” I contacted Dr. Ghorbani because I had previously seen her for a routine colonoscopy and therefore was an “established patient.” Per their front desk instructions, I messaged the doctor to ask for an earlier appointment than the first available consultation appt four months away. It didn’t seem like a good idea for me to wait that long since one of my liver tests came back 5 times higher than the upper limit. The bottom of the messages said to “wait up to 48 hours for a response.” I heard nothing for 8 days. Finally got a call back from the assistant on day 8 who said the doctor would like me to go in to see her PA. No response to my concerns, no advice, and no desire to see me as a patient. My response was, “No thanks. I found someone else already.”
