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.

Dr Amiri is basically a pill writer. She has an awkward style and doesn’t really connect with her patients or remember much about them. She also runs her practice in a way that’s very focused on herself—policies, ways of communication. I’ve moved both of my kids to other physicians. It’s good that she’s not accepting new patients. May be time for her to retire.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Amiri?
She is unresponsive and extremely difficult to work with. Rude staff. No one returns calls. Very hard to book appointments or get refills. In crisis, completely not available. Unresponsive to requests for paperwork or collaboration with other doctors. Completely apathetic and uninvested.
