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.

Patient of hers for almost 20 years.
Dr. Mahadevan is a great doctor…very knowledgeable and helpful in explaining things concerning your health problems. I trust and believe in her…otherwise I would not have stayed with her all these years.

I've had back issues forever 20 years with no explanation. Dr. Mahadevan looked beyond spine issues and found it is nerve related. I'm finally getting relief. Thank you Dr .Mahadevan

She is one of the best and friendliest doctors I have seen. I had been to four other doctors prior to being referred to her by a family friend, and she diagnosed my problem, psoriatic arthritis, immediately. She put me on a medication and within a month I am feeling much better.
