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.

He is attentive, insightful, he asks the right questions, and clearly identifies and explains problems, then provides a clear, concise plan of care in collaboration with each patient. He is an intentional listener and makes sure all questions are fully answered so the patient and physician can go forward with the same goals and objectives. I completely trust his knowledge and skills.

I like Dr. Dhruva. He has a caring and friendly demeanor. I remember his caring attitude when my husband was ill and his concern for me when he died. I trust him to do for me what is best for my particular heart problem.

Dr. Dhruva is an outstanding caring physician. He actually cares about his patients and takes his time and goes the extra mile. I highly recommend him if you are in need of a cardiologist. He is well versed in the latest technology and works with you to develop a solution that will work for your situation. In addition, he has a lot of patience dealing with people, especially since this can be a frightening experience having to deal with your heart issues, new medications way of life etc.
