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.

An amazing pediatrician!
Dr. Shivaram and everyone in the pediatric department are absolutely wonderful. They take very good care of my child. They're all set and ready with everything that needs to be done for my daughter's yearly wellness exams. When my daughter is sick they always give her an appointment that same day. Dr. Shivaram and Sarah Dean and Kandis are all amazing! My daughter, husband and myself are all so very grateful to have this medical team helping us!

Wonderful with kids!
Took my daughter to establish care with a Pediatrician since we had just moved into a new county. Dr. Shivaram was so nice and my daughter immediately loved her! She listened to our concerns, answered all our questions, and even got my daughter involved with checking everything over. Couldn’t ask for a better Pediatrician!

From Being My Pediatrician to My Child’s
Dr. Shivram always has been and continues to be the best. Always greeted with a welcoming smile and is so informative on everything you need to know without having to ask. We always look forward to seeing her for our check ups because you can tell she truly cares about her patients.
