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.

What the heck?
I was glad to find a Geriatric Dr. near me since I find that most Dr.s are not really interested in older patients. The doctor I have been seeing in T urlock has lost all interest in my care for the past 2 or 3 yrs. Dr Uppal did not give me any kind of examination as a new patient. He looked through some current information I brought with me,( recent blood tests). I had planned to address some of my concerns but he did not ask me any questions , instead talked about some Japanese farmer he once knew. Then said there were all kinds of people in the world???when I mentioned my joint pain he said ,'I have joint pain too', Just start walking.That was the total of my appointment. It was just as if he totally dismissed me. I will not go back.
