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.

Knowledge is wealth
Dr. Alapati listens to you very well. His expertise and experience remains outstanding.

Wish All my doctors were like Dr. Alapati!
This will be my third colonoscopy, my blood pressure was up because…well, I’m at the doctors office to schedule an exam that should be every five years and this will be my third in five years. Dr. Alapati has a kind way about him…exceptional “bedside manner.” He asked about my family, he remembers them well…he covered anxious topics carefully not to excite but to confirm. I hope he never retires, lol.

I have been Dr. Alapati’s patient for a long time. He has so much compassion and has worked hard to solve some out of the norm issues I have had. He connects to his patients in a kind, caring manner and never hesitates to ask me about my family and my work. He never rushed and takes the time to answer all my questions. I highly recommend Dr. Alapati and I am very grateful to have him as my Gastroenterologist. Thank you
