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 makes decisions in regards to your care, prior to examining you. She’s very opinionated and absolutely does not think or go outside the box. She’s condescending and has zero bedside manner. If I were to ever get her as a hospitalist again, I’ll say no thank you. A hospital stay should involve rest and healing, and not a provider that says “I don’t know” to every question

I found her to be harsh, difficult, opinionated, controlling, overbearing, and an generally angry individual. I would have left zero stars if Health Grades would have allowed me to do so.

Dr. Muthineni was rude and impatient. She yelled at me for not getting out of bed when I was a fall risk and had a bed alarm. I would not recommend her for anybody.
