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.

Immunotherapy made my sister worse, he never spoke to her or checked up on her, while she was dying there were never any visits to her or family and no explanations.

I highly reccomend Dr. Raj. Today, October 26, 2017, he discharged me from his care after 11 years. I first met him with a diagnosis of Hodgkins Lymphoma, stage 4B. He knew exactly what to do. I was in rémission halfway through the chez course, and remain so today. Dr. Raj is very professional and nicely personable. After the initial months of treatment, visits to him were very efficient and punctual. He is a healer!

I met Dr. Rajagopalin while I was in the hospital and have been going to him every 6 months ever since then. I found him warm and friendly and answered every question I had in simple and understandable terms. He will spent as much time with you as you need and Dr. Raj makes me feel confident. I trust him completely.
