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.

She is one of the best Dr in hospital ! Thank you !

Visiting Dr. Thanjan's office was a wonderful experience. Everyone from the staff who greeted us, to the technicians who helped us and all the way up to Dr. Thanjan were very gracious. Being there for a cardio check-up for a 3 year old can be scary and harrowing, but they made us all very comfortable. The facilities were clean, the machines were state of the art, and the doctor's bed side manner was impeccable. We would definitely recommend this practice.

We love Dr Thanjan. She came to the hospital on a Sunday afternoon to do a 2D echo & evaluate my grandson for suspected RF. We took to her right away. She has very professional and reassuring presence. A PLUS for extremely anxious caregivers. She labs and procedure in the simplest terms we could understand. She worked with our team of doctors and facilitated with f/u visits with equally competent doctors. She is a combination of expertise and HEART! A rarity for one so accomplished.

Dr. Maria Thanjan is GREAT! She's very easy to talk to, personable and caring. She was very detailed with all the information regarding my daughter's VSD. Thank God it closed on its own. Very grateful with all the help she provided. Thank you Dr. Thanjan!
