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 had a very thorough appointment, he explained and asked a lot of questions to figure out my condition. He returned my call and called me first thing with my results. Staff was nice as well. I recommend him as a doctor and his office.

He does not return phone calls...he seems reluctant to hear me out and then ignores my perceptions...he has been both rude and abrupt...my condition needs a well versed professional which this doctor is not...he has also been rude to my other healthcare professionals...his personality is sorely lacking...look elsewhere!

Dr Munzir is a wonderful physician with a great reputation. His office staff however are terrible. Basically in a nut shell, I was told they are too understaffed to check on approvals on tests from insurance companies. I have been waiting over 30 days to get approval for a test. I called the insurance and they said it should only take two days for approval. The office lady said they sent the request in, and would resubmit. In addition, I received a take home device, and it had no batteries in it. When I returned the device, the lady said, " Well, that's our office manager for you." Just horrible office staff.
