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.

Front office is the worst. The receptionist has no clue as to how to talk to people. She was very rude and would not give an appointment for a sick visit. Dr. Somasundaram needs to be aware that she is driving away potential patients at her own discretion.

I am overall happy with my care. Dr. Soma is a good person, a very caring physician and shows a genuine interest in my children. I am usually able to get in very quickly in emergent situations. He takes his time with me. I saw some of the other negative comments and disagree with the office being financially oriented. A patient is expected to pay their copay, why would they not pay and on top of that complain?

Irresponsible, un-ethical, they should be running a money lending business or should be pawn brokers rather than being a Dr. They cancelled my 2 kids physicals, just because the earlier claims are still in process by Insurance company. Don't risk your child health with these money brokers

Dr Soma has been my children's pediatrician since they were born. They are now 15 and 17. I van always get in quickly if they are ill and I am always happy with his care.
