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.

Thank you !
Dr. Paracha was very warm and knowledgeable to my diagnosis. He was available multiple times in a day if I needed him and I can't thank him enough for all his hard work! Would recommend to anyone who is in need of help in their life

Dr Paracha has never been on time for one of our teleconference meetings. His staff is nice, tries to get him to call in prescriptions, get to appointments, etc. it is well known that he “ treats everyone like this” one time I waited 5 hours for his call. Sadly , psychiatrists are in sort supply so I have stayed. He talks for no more than 10 or once 15 minutes but is calling that a full appointment. No. I would not recommend him BTW? His resume says he works at St. Louis U hospital, not for years , only one person even knew his name.

Fly by night Dr. ?
Dr. Paracha took care of my husband when he was in the hospital. He told my husband he would be his dr., after my husband asked him. He had one telehealth visit, and haven't heard a peep out of him, in a few months. My husband is without his meds, because there is no way to get ahold of this man, to refill them. We called his office, left messages, and even called the after-hours number. No one called back. This is VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. Good luck if he says he'll be your dr.
