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’m constantly trying to get prescriptions refilled with no help from the office personnel. They are nasty and rude all the time and make me feel as though I’m disturbing them when I call to speak with my doctor

Dr. Goudarzi is a wonderful physician who is approachable, thorough and sensitive. He is not only proactive, but is reassuring and explains your options. His office staff and nurses reflect the professionalism and standards that he sets. His demeanor reflects on how he treats his patients. I feel that I have been given exemplary and personalized care.

Dr. Goudarzi is a fine doctor. Unfortunately, the practice is poorly managed. The office is small, cluttered, disorganized & rather shabby. Staff is unresponsive and/or prescribes based on voicemail left by the patient. Rather than call back, they rely on an auto-text notification system. They're disorganized & seemingly overwhelmed (and this was true before COVID-19) The latest example happened this week: First thing Mon. morning, my 90-yo Mom called for severe a COPD flare up. By Mon. afternoon, we discovered they'd sent Rx's for her, but to the wrong pharmacy (a mail-order company she doesn't even use!) She called back Tues. morning, I called Tues. afternoon. No response, no follow up, Finally, at 4pm, an auto-text for her Rx's - again, to the wrong pharmacy. We're heading out to the ER instead.

Dr. Goudarzi was ok, it is the incompetent staff that is the problem and unfortunately you have more dealings with them than the doctor. They are not helpful and cause unnecessary delays with scheduling because they will not follow up with the insurance companies. They are rude and nasty and "accidentally" hung up on me twice.

Have been seeing Dr. Goudarzi for several years for asthma and sleep apnea. I've had asthma for almost 50 years and was never fully controlled until I started seeing Dr. Goudarzi. I find him to be a knowledgeable caring physician.

over rules anything you say or what another doctor has said, asked me if I was going to quit smoking, charged me $35 for that question, Repeated test that my neurologist had just run, this is strictly a money making operation, that is how I feel.

I?m old and had many doctors in my life. Dr. Goudarzi is the worse I had. I had paralyzing pain; his answer ?I do now know why. Go and buy pain killer. I gave him CD of MRI diagnoses possible lung cancer. His answer: I have no time to with ? it?ll take too long. Bring me another one in three months then I can see. No physical exam at all for couple of hundred dollars.
