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. Kumar listens to what you have to say and has always happy to respond to any questions posed in a manner that is readily understood and is very thorough. He has been my cardiologist for many years and is someone I enjoy seeing and is a conumate professional.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Kumar?
Best cardiologist and he saved my grandmothers life by making the doctors that punctured a hole in her heart, but told us she’s fine her recovery is normal, admit that what truly happened and got her the appropriate and only doctor in Richmond that performs the surgery to repair the VSD. If it wasn’t for dr Kumar I would have lost both of my grandparents by now and I will forever be in his debt and thankful that god put him in our lives. I’ve been to cardiologists at VCU, Duke, university of North Carolina, avid ant in greens villa N.C., and chippenham and still I will say not 1 even doctor compares to the compassion and dedication that Dr.Kumar has shown
