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.

Best there is.
I am currently fighting for more time with my family, and am beyond grateful for Dr. Harichand and her wonderful team. She truly cares so much about her patients and her expertise in cancer treatments is amazing. She values not only quantity, but also quality of life and that is such a gift. She is not the first oncologist I have worked with in my cancer journey but she is, by far, the best.

To me Dr. Harichand is the best. She takes time to listen to your concerns and always seems to find a way to ease any anxiety that you may have. Anything that I have ever needed in the past 3 years she has seen to it that I got it asap. Again she is the best.Bill Mccoy

When it comes to dealing with cancer, you want someone you can trust. I trust Dr Seema. She is logical, thorough and walks you through all your options. She takes time to explain things in a way that makes sense. She does not claim to have all the answers and will collaborate with experts to make sure she is providing the best possible care. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone dealing with a cancer diagnosis.
