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.

She had a poor bedside manner and was unprofessional. I was told I could bring my children, and when she came in for the visit, she said she was too distracted and that I needed to find childcare before our next appointment. I tried to explain that I didn't have childcare but she was completely dismissive. She said she'd see me in a month as I began to tear up because she refused to invest any time into the new patient visit and then she just walked out. My kids felt they did something wrong.

Dr. Krishnan was rude and talked over me. I had a hard time understanding half of what she said.

Dr. Krishnan has been my doctor for a few years now, and anything I’ve ever had questions or concerns about, she’s been right there to answer them. She’s helped me to get my diabetes under control, and showed genuine concern when I was less active in my progress. The majority of the staff in the office are wonderful, caring people, and I highly recommend them all.

Dr. Shylasree Krishnan is extremely thorough. She is also informative, and not afraid to refer you to a specialist. She always orders any necessary tests or blood work after assessing your visit. She is very good with following up as well. I highly recommend her!
