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'm 65 and have seen plenty of doctors. Dr. Boughal is the best. He is knowledgeable, thorough, caring, and friendly.

I’ve been a patient of Dr Boughals for over 20 years. He’s a doctor not a business which is a rarity. Another unique part of his practice is his staff. They’ve been with him since I’ve been a patient which says a lot about the man. Until recently he was in private practice. He a great diagnostician and smart enough to refer when he felt it was necessary.

I can tell the real deal when I see it. A Dr. With knowledge, confidence and the understanding that communication is key, listening as well as making sure that the patient understands. Dr. Boughal has been my physician for 14 years and keeps this body of mine in check. As far as the staff goes, a total 5 for 5, love them!

I can't say enough good things about Dr.Boughal he gets right to the point. If he can't provide the diagnosis for treatment he gets you right to a specialists the same day. He always follows through with phone calls. I would say is old-school connected with Huntington hospital and a great person.

In the land of large medical groups and walk-in clinics, Dr. Boughal's office continues to provide old world care, where everyone knows your name and you're not merely a number and co-pay. Dr. Boughal is very thorough, and his staff is wonderful, always willing to help with whatever you need (referrals for specialists, etc.). As a patient of Dr. Boughal for nearly 20 years, I highly recommend him and his office.
