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.

Great Doctor!
I've been a patient of Dr. Baliga's for several years now. She's been attentive and someone I can talk to about anything and everything. She helped me solve several health issues and explains things really well.

Dr. Baliga knows nothing about patient care, she is rude and arrogant. During my physical exam she was walked into the room very disconnected and was rushing to leave, frustratingly answered my 2 questions and left… I will never recommend her to anyone who is looking for a good doctor. Worst doctor I’ve ever seen in my life.

I've been a patient of Dr. Baliga for several years and have never been happy with the low level of care she provides. From day one she was rude, laughed at my issues, and was never interested in feedback from me about my own body. She overprescribed medication and, again, never listened to feedback. She increased my thyroid medication to the point it was making me sick, then told me to go to the emergency room. She required lab tests, then wouldn't place the orders. There was always some issue I had to sort out and I had to advocate hard to be heard. She never listened to me and I tried hard to not have to see her. I had a horrible experience with Dr. Baliga. Healthcare is so bad, I stuck with the bad care I was familiar with instead of finding a doctor who prioritizes patient care. It took a push, but I've now moved on and it was absolutely the right decision.

Dr. Baliga was tremendously helpful and nice. I would recommend her in a heartbeat! She addressed every concern I had about an upcoming international trip, my general health, and a few personal issues with a recurring knee injury plus a curious vision issue. Overall, she and my nurse made my experience simply delightful. It was even a little fun!

Dr. Baliga is the first PCP I've had in a long time that I truly feel comfortable with. She address any and all my concerns, no matter how big or small. I never feel rushed, yet know that she uses her time very wisely as I've always seen her on time. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to establish with a new primary care physician!
