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.

On May 20,2004 (age 61) I entered West Anaheim Medical Center (sent from Kayser) for a stent. The Dr there punctured my artery and I required immediate open heart surgery. Dr Vunna came right over from Anaheim Memorial and proceeded to perform a triple bi=pass along with a stent. While waiting for surgery he assurred me all will be fine and I felt a peace and calm come over me as he held my hand, I knew everything was going to be OK. Today I am almost 77 with 7 grandkids , 2 greats and do everything I did in my 40's. Thank you Dr. Vunna for giving me these wonderful years.

My father went to the emergency room on Tuesday night (1/19/2016) because he was having chest pains. My father is 69 years young, and in great shape, but they found that his coronary artery was 95% blocked, and he immediately needed a double bypass surgery. Dr. V performed surgery yesterday on him, and he's alive and well. Thank you Dr. Vunnamadala for fixing my dad, and bringing him back to me better than ever! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! Hoping this helps people that were lost, as we were
