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.

Dr. Chirumamilla is a superior nephrologist. She has kept me alive and off of dialysis since 2006. In 2006 I learned that I only have one functioning kidney and it doesn't function very well. But, Dr. Chirumamilla has prescribed a course of treatment that has kept me off of dialysis. She and her staff at Southside Kidney Specialists are EXCELLENT caregivers and I would recommend them without reservations to anyone with kidney problems!
