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.

Stellar Physician
Dr. Malhotra has been my primary care Dr for a couple of years and I could not be happier with his care. I feel lucky that he is my doctor and in this day and age when health insurance requires doctors to move so quickly with patients, it is very refreshing to have Dr Malhotra take his time and be so compassionate in his approach. Fantastic doctor.
