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.

Referral from my GP so I trusted that he would recommend someone good. Boy, was I wrong. Really bad bedside manner. Gave me a fatal diagnosis in a few minutes without having any of the symptoms that always come with the disease. Also, the building looked unkept. That was the first and last time that I ever go there.

Poor experience
Such a poor management I have never seen in my entire life . In my first appointment I had to wait more than 2 hours at the clinic before I had to see the doctor . I was told that next time it will be quick . When I went again I was waiting for more than an hour and there was no update . I asked the receptionist to check she went inside and didn’t turn up . I left the clinic without seeing the doctor . Such a bad experience. They don’t respect others time .

There's something seriously off about this guy, his practice, and how he delegates his patients to his wife, a dentist. The office is old and unkept, he is not timely, and he prescribed drugs like they're candy. It's crazy. I was so startled by the ease and amount of drugs he wanted to give me that I never went back. Her dental office isn't much better. I didn't go back there either.

1) his office is completely unorganized and it shows. 2) there were spiders and a strange smell. 3) he was awakward, insensitive, rude, and acted like a quack. 4) it is virtually impossible to get in touch with him, voicemails do nothing, requests from other doctors do nothing. 5) he was qucik during my visits which i always waited 45+ minutes to see him. 6) his office workers seem uninteliglbe and not certified to work in their field. 7) I have an issue with any private doctor that does not have active security cameras-especially since my copays were cash. 8)WASTE of time money and energy with this quack.

I'm a patient in his Frisco office and I have nothing but great things to say about Dr. Kumar. I have chronic migraines & headaches & have been through the ringer with dr after dr after dr. TMJ specialist, chiropractors, ENTs, other neurologists, massage therapists. I've been battling migraines for approximately 9 years. I would have headaches every day & migraines 1 - 3 times a week. It was debilitating. I was struggling having a drive to go to work & to be a wife & mother. Dr Kumar assessed me & found alot of my issues had to do with my sleep pattern. I wasnt getting to the REM stage & I was grinding my teeth. It has been almost 2 months since my last migraine & I rarely have a headache. He genuinely cares about resolving the issues! The only thing I would recommend is that he types out the instructions for his patients. He has an accent that is sometimes hard to understand. He is fantastic tho!! Being migraine/headache free, I have more energy now than I have in years!!

He is not to be taken serious in his profession. He is a quack and I will tell everyone to not go to him. He is absolutely 100% not effective as a Nuerologist he waste a lot of meds and slot of peoples time. His record keeping is a nightmare. I can’t stress enough don’t see this guy it’s a waste of ur time

Too secretive about what he’s injecting you with and prescribing you. I suggest you look up all medications before you waste your money or your life. He advocates for his wife (Monika Kumar)who also shares an office as a dentist. I had an appointment with her and before I could even see her for an examination, her assistant presented me a bill for $450! No examination, no conversation and I had to ask her if she intended to examine me, then she looked at my teeth, muttered a few words and said the exam is $40. I told her that I’m NOT paying for a mouth brace to sleep in and her reply was...YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR...Extremely rude and unprofessional ...AVOID AT ALL RISK

Didn’t see doctor because 1. Can understand wanting to cut costs but the grass hadn’t been cut in forever and office looked abandoned 2.The office smelled like cigarette smoke (lady there was smoking inside) 3. My appointment was at 9:15 but was told to go eat some breakfast or something because the doctor wouldn’t be in until 10:30 or 11. Needless to say I didn’t stay!!

After visiting numerous neurologists, I found an amazing doctor who was not only dedicated to his profession but actually cares about the well-being of his patients. If you suffer from migraines, look no further than Dr. Kumar. He has two rooms set up for migraine patients. I have been seeing Dr Kumar for over 10 years for chronic migraines, and he is a life saver. I completely and wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Kumar to anyone suffering with migraines!

Have seen dr Kumar for four years. You do have to wait to see him sometimes for hours, but if you want the best concessions have to be made. He is the only doctor able to treat my condition and knew what I had.

1st time I saw Dr. Kumar he was 2 hours late. Then I made my appt. so I would be the 1st patient of the day. He proceeded to be 1 hour late. This is not acceptable and shows complete disrespect to the patient. In the 30 days under his care I did not get better. I was not willing to try any more treatment by this physician as I'd waste most of my time waiting for him in the patient room.
