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.

Kind and helpful staff, excellent doctor. Repaired a mangled finger so well, the damage is no longer noticeable.

Upon my daughter's recommendation, I brought an xray report and consulted Dr. Pokhrel because of a chronic, severe pain in my wrist and hand. She did a thorough evaluation and ultimately gave me two injections plus a brace. I've had three months of relief. Great people skills.

Worst experience with any doctor and doctor's office! I called to make an appointment and was informed that my records from my out of state surgeon must be mailed to the office. I later confirmed that my records were received but was told Dr. Pokhrel "took them with her". I asked that the office call me with an appointment. Nothing happened. I subsequently left 3 messages requesting an appointment. No response from this doctor or her office.
