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.

First visit to Dr. Thakkar
He was delightful. He had spent 45 min reviewing my records and knew everything about me when he walked in the door. He impressed as being very efficient and super intelligent. He listened intently and answered any questions that I had. I can't say enough good things about him. I will definitely feel confident in having him to care for me with my situation.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Thakkar?
My father recently had a stent placed by this "doctor" that doesn't even deserve a star. Dr. Thacker was short-tempered, condescending and utterly hostile when we tried to ask questions. He had no idea what Dad's current medications were, what his current medical history was and felt that was justified by "he's only been my patient for a week!" Obnoxious and arrogant his own nurse came in to apologize for his boorish behavior with a speech she'd obviously repeated often enough to memorize it.
