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.

Rheumatoid Arthritis Treatment
I saw Dr. Antar for Rheumatoid Arthritis. He gave me a treatment plan that helps me greatly, he is compassionate and has a great bedside manner. I saw a Rheumatologist before him that was unable to help or diagnose me.

He kept focusing on joint pain even though that was not why I was there. Asked about my medical history. I told him I have Intracranial Hypertension and he laughed at me and treated me like I was lying. Took blood, didn't discuss what it could be and made me wait 6 weeks just to say that labs were normal and it was what we thought. Would not offer any advice other than cognitive behavioral therapy (I have IH - I KNOW how to cope with chronic pain). Visit notes are lies. Waste of time and money.
