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.

I still don't understand my condition
The staff is very friendly and helpful. I found Dr. Chaukiyal to be rushed and unable to answer my questions in a way that I could understand. I tried two appointments and went into the second one with a list of questions that were what I felt, pretty basic. I'm certain she is very smart but she could not convey her knowledge to me. I will be searching for another opinion and a new doctor. My friend sees Dr. Chaukiyal and likes her very much. Different illness. I would not recommend her for my issue but I would if the issue were the one my friend has. NYOH has excellent facilities and treatment.

Dr. Chaukiyal is an intelligent & caring provider who explains things in a way I can understand and shows she was listening to me. She follows-up and immediately adjusts treatment after lab-results. I trust and respect her judgment. Highly recommend
