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.

Awful. For half of my appointments, I’ve been stuck waiting OVER AN HOUR to be seen. The doctor has poor bedside manner and is not helpful in answering questions.

Horrible experience. I waited for 2 hours only for her to spend 2 minutes or her time prescribing me medication that I don’t even believe is appropriate for my condition. What condition you ask? Well I don’t know because she didn’t even diagnose me. Never coming here again

Dr Sarao has been taking care of my 90 year old mother for the past 25 years. She has provided excellent medical care and advice for my Mom. I am a healthcare professional. I work as a Risk Manager fro a hospital. Based on my 30 plus years of physician experience, I can hardily say that Dr Sarao is a kind physician with a wealth of medical knowledge.
