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.

Excellent doctor and surgeon.
He diagnosed and performed my need for a heart pacemaker, which has saved my life. He has also gotten my high blood pressure under control. He is worth waiting on.

At St Mary’s Hospital I was given a heart catheterization. Cardiologist Tshiswaka Kayembe stated that I did not have a blockage, no heart damage, and did not have a heart attack. I was told that I MAY have had a spasm in a vein on the back side of my heart. However I still has a EKG that showed I was having a heart attack. I was sent home without an explanation of why I felt so bad. He did not properly diagnosed me with pericarditis.
