Review for Dr. Khan
I trust Dr. Pennington and his team with all their expertise with shoulder repair. It’s a comfort to know you are seeing highly skilled professionals and that they are trying to achieve the best possible outcome for your care.

Review for Dr. Pennington
He orders tests for his doctor friends to make money on…He tells you you have a condition that you don’t have…He transcribes a report for your primary doctor but never delivers it to your doctor….Puts you on two blood thinners so you develop a bleeding ulcer, thereby giving his Indian doctor friends...

Review for Dr. Ravichandran
I changed my primary care to Dr Cummens a few years ago. My visits are 'healthy visits ' in nature so they're relatively easy. She's very personable. Doesn't push any testing or vaccine I'm not comfortable with getting. Always on time. Nice staff.

He did NOT do any review of my situation, he kept rubbing his nose while I was in there (yuck). He said that he didn't believe I had cobalt radiation when I was young and he told me to go have 3 separate tests without ever examining me. NO THANK YOU!
