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.

Dr. Dharan is very thorough and personable.
Dr. Dharan listened to my issues and stays on top of the tests I need regularly. The office is very efficient and responds quickly. I highly recommend Dr. Dharan.

I was scheduled to have a colonoscopy with Dr. Dharan and was concerned about the prep because I have IBS. I have had colonoscopies before but the prep this time was a diet for a few days plus the prep an additional day. I started having results the day before my final prep day and continued for over 20 hours. His staff insisted I continue with the prep. I had unusual results and after 5:00 pm his office closed. I had no way to contact him. I never heard from Dr Dharan again. Not right.

Dr Dharan has been a fabulous doctor and medical resource for me. He has been treating me for about 6 years and I would NEVER go anywhere else. I mentioned him to another doctor and the response was that's who I see. The staff is friendly and patient. When I'm in for my appointment, he always knows all the details of our previous visit. My guess is that he studies your case before he sees you each time. That makes me feel comfortable. I trust him.
