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.

Worst GP I have ever had in my life.
Fell asleep during Zoom meeting and continued to nod off throughout. Refused to assist me with digestive issues, because I had declined a 2nd round of cancer treatment. In fact, told me in the the most unprofessional way possible that he would not help. Possibly does not agree with my decision to prolong a life already filled with pain and discomfort from 4 debilitating Autoimmune diseases, but refusing palliative care? I reported the incident/interaction word for word to the office manager at Primary Physician Partners and no repercussions came from it.

Excellent doctor-- extremely knowledgeable and compassionate. He listens carefully to his patients. I'm lucky to have found him! He's also introduced me to nonwestern things to incorporate into my life-- a different diet, yoga, breathing exercises for my anxiety.

My primary physician of many years retired, and I was a bit hesitant seeing a new doctor. I was so pleased with my initial visit with Dr. T. His fund of knowledge, expertise, professionalism, listening skills, calm manner and friendliness reassuring. He was so caring and quite possibly one of the nicest people I have ever met! I am delighted he is my new primary care doctor.

Dr. Thippanna is very informed on the importance, and power of nutritional medicine. Most doctors have limited, or very little knowledge in this area. With his guidance I was able to stop my blood pressure meds, and my diabetes has gone away. No more meds at 65 years old!
