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.

I have much confidence in Dr. Kupp!!! He has handled my meds, my tests, my "complex conditions". I have found him to sit down by me and listen closely to my concerns (and what I have written down in my "To Kupp" questions!!
I highly recommend him!!! Dennis A. Hooker

I have been a regular patient of Dr. K's for about five years and I think he is terrific. He is attentive, thorough and compassionate. He discusses changes in treatment and medications. Dr. K and his staff do a terrific job and I would recommend him to anyone.

I was forced to go to Dr. Kuppuswamy after my long time doctor passed away. I went to get the routine check-up associated with getting my blood pressure medicine. Dr. Kuppuswamy entered the room and told me that after checking my records he would like for me to have blood work done. I explained that I wasn't working at the time and that I didn't have the money to get blood work done right away...he exits the office and comes back with a non-compliance form for me sign.

Dr. Kuppuswamy is a very good doctor. He found out about my kidney issues and the blood pressure problems I was having in relation to the kidney issues. He put me on 2 different bp pills that work great. I would recommend him to anyone. Thanks Dr. K

The office staff and nurses are great but the doctor won't hear me I tell him what's going on and he treats me like a hypochondriac I have no history of that behavior I don't take daily meds or make lots of appointments I just want to be heard to feel my concerns are taken seriously

He threw me under the bus, rather than listening to me and actually hearing me. He clearly has a very narrow tunnel vision. I made sure my friends know not to go to this dr.
