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.

The Best Pediatrician
My son has been seeing Dr. Dua since he was a baby and I can confidently say that he is excellent at taking care of all of his patients. I look at the little things like taking the time to get to know his patients and calling back even when it is a busy day. Not only is Dr Dua great, but his staff is exceptional as well. Especially his secretary BiBi. She is extremely professional and reliable. When I arrive at the office I know I will be in and out in a timely fashion with all of my forms signed and stamped. I wish Dr. Dua and his staff well so they can treat many more children in our community.
