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. Prakash was both extremely compassionate and extremely knowledgeable. I am very grateful for her help, especially in regard to how well she listened to me, how much time she spent interviewing me, and how clearly she explained things to me. She is a wonderful doctor and I recommend her whole-heartedly!

Dr. Prakash is a very knowledgeable, caring, and considerate doctor. She listens well and never rushes her patients. She goes the extra mile in explaining your condition and providing as many resources as possible for your treatment. I like that she engages you and makes you feel that your treatment is a team approach and that she is right in there with you. I highly recommend her for any patient that has lost confidence in finding a great doctor. She makes you feel like your health is her utmost priority. Many kudos, Dr. Prakash! You're excellent at what you do!

Dr. Prakash was warm and caring. She sat down with me and went through exactly what was happening with my thyroid condition. She also went through the different types of medicine I could take and what I could expect. I would highly recommend her to anyone with complicated thyroid issues.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Prakash?
Dr. Prakash was dismissive and quick to shut me down, with every symptom and question I had. I came to her after struggling with Hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's for 10 years (I'm 21 now) and all she did was put me on more pills that just made me feel worse. I wouldn't recommend Dr. Prakash to anyone struggling with hypothyroidism, hashimoto's or graves disease.
