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. Prabhakar is very thorough. She is very busy but never rushes through your appointment. My husband was recently diagnosed with Diabetes. Dr. Prabhakar called him at home on a Sunday to deliver the news and schedule his follow up appointment with her that week.

Dr. Prabhakar has been my primary care doctor for almost 20 years. This is a very good and thorough doctor. Anything that went wrong with me this doctor was on it with quick diagnosis and effective treatment where ever possible, every time. I would recommend this doctor to anybody. She has a good sense of humor too.
