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.

From my first visit with Dr. Shamji, I was impressed with the friendly, professional, respectful treatment by Dr. Shamji and the medical staff. I trust Dr. Shamji to make the best use of his medical studies and experience to advance the quality of my heart health and my general well being. Trust is essential for me because I’ve spent years recovering from bad medical practices. Dr. Shamji and his team are aware of the importance of creating an inviting atmosphere. Respect is also very important to me. It is easy to recognize through eye contact, body language and how one’s voice is used. I give Dr. Shamji 5 stars! I am positive that the quality is his treatment provides a physical benefit.

After seeing many physicians, it's obvious that Dr. Shamji is one of the best. Not only is he friendly (i.e. great bedside manner), he took the time to work with me and even follow up after my visit to the ER. I would recommend Dr. Shamji to anyone in need of a competent and caring cardiologist.

First to Review I went to my internist a couple of months ago who told me that I had had a heart attack. Obviously, I was concerned, to say the least. He referred me to Munaf Shamji, this cardioloist. I had to wait to see him for a month. He saw me for 3 minutes, ordered me back for another month. Then they cancelled the appointment and made a number of false excuses before admitting that it was their fault, and they lacked the proper technician staff. I didn't die, so I can write this.
