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. Chander is a very caring and kind doctor who truly cares about his patients. He always goes the extra mile!

Dr. Chander is excellent.
Dr. Chander treated my Mum a Canadian with the best care, kindness, and professionalism. The treatments, referrals and knowledge of Dr. Chander far exceeded the care she received in Canada.He was also my stepfather’s Dr. (American Insurance) with the utmost care as well.He’s honest, caring and knows his profession inside and out. If there is something he doesn’t know, he’ll find out!

Have been a patient for approximately eight years. Too many positives to list them but I know I am in good hands. He confers with my Mayo doctor and doesn't hesitate to refer me to specialists, "Where he would go." Most importantly, from the symptoms he recognized that my mother had a glioblastoma (brain tumor) that was missed by three local physicians.

Dr. Chander seems out of it lately. Cannot pay attention long enough to listen to patient concerns, seems to be unable to handle treatment options, had to clearly repeat problem multiple times in plain language about a condition and then the nurse had to say the same thing twice before Dr. Chander acknowledged what was being said. Ignored a chronic condition causing harm to me in the office, then failed to follow through and refer me to a clinic that could help me over multiple appointments.

  • Didn't listen or answer questions
