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.

What happened to Dr. KIND??!!
After several years of okay, I have found him to be rude and impatient. Actually looked at his watch and told me we didn't have time for my health concerns. I will be long gone as soon as possible.

He’s not as kind as he used to be.
I’ve been a patient for many years. Sad to say I’m disappointed in Dr G. I believe it’s important for your doctor to listen and appreciate your input. Unfortunately Dr G has a tendency to be dismissive. Not very professional.

Does no listen well, feels superior Wants you to only tell him one symptom. dismisses everything as anxiety. I was having seizures suddenly and never experienced them before for several months. Could tell he didn’t believe it. He was not concerned. I was sick but he wouldn’t let me tell him more than one thing at a time. Well after a year of occasional seizures During the night, I seizured myself into a 4 day long coma where I was intubated because I stopped breathing. I couldn’t speak for days. Terrifying for my family. Also if you’re sick don’t tell him more than one symptom, he doesn’t like it. Tell you to make another appointment for that symptom. He can be really nice if he likes you. Or if there’s a nurse in the room with him he’s different. Funny even. I wish him nothing but the best. May God Bless him in the future. Just take his patient complaints seriously.

Am switching from Dr Gheewala to a different provider. He seems to be very reluctant to treat you unless you "wait two weeks" first (for almost any issue) When in moderate pain, I do feel I should have to "wait two weeks!
