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.

Could not be bothered
This dr. was filling in for my 96 year old mother's regular dr. Called him after hours saying that she was experiencing symptoms of an UTI, which she has had before, and asked if he could call in a prescription. We can get the urine test tomorrow to confirm, but at least get her started this evening with the antibiotic. He flatly said no, call the dr. tomorrow or take her to the emergency room. I wonder if he's ever had an UTI or knows what it takes to get someone that age to the ER. You think he'd know what an UTI can do to a person this age. A few weeks ago, I thought I was getting a UTI. I called my dr, spoke to the dr. on call and within an hour he had called in a prescription. Sadly, my mom couldn't get the same treatment from this dr.

He is awesome and very knowledgeable. His short responses can be misinterpreted as being unfriendly.

The visit was pretty short, I would even say abnormally short. But in this short amount of time, he showed me his impressively wide range of expertise. It's like he whipped it out of nowhere. The time I was with Dr. Prasad was very pleasurable. In fact I felt his wide range of knowledge inside me like I've never felt before. It was a very enjoyable visit and I would recommend it to anyone.
