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.

Good timing/ doesn't waste your time
Great doctor. Makes things easy and provides right care in a short amount of time. Didn't have to wait too long all the times I went to see him.

Worst ever. Only takes cash for co-pay and balance after insurance pays. He is pretty creepy.

MassHealth changed my PCP to Dr. Chawla I asked for a prescription refill. He performed a quick physical then asked me to pee in a cup. After I asked him twice what for, he reluctantly told me for a drug test. He was trying to trick me into taking a drug test in order to refill my prescription. I am 30 year old self employed engineer in perfect health. I'm by no means a suspicious character. He is insulting. Also, does not return calls and is argumentative.
