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.

He failed to monitor my blood levels for lithium, caused acute kidney failure. Also, overcharged me for every single visit. Terminated me because insurance company requested reimbursement of monies owed to me. Lied repeatedly and would not give me or BCBS access to his billing dept. Total quack.

I have been seeing this doctor for seven years. He is the only doctor that was able to diagnose my rare disorder, and every time I cannot tolerate a new medication, he is very careful about figuring out if I will tolerate other ones. Incredibly smart, kind, thorough, and always very promptly returns my calls when I have concerns or questions. AMAZING DOCTOR.

Being his patient is the most horrible experience I've had with a Psychiatrist. He is rude and overbearing. He ask, "How have you been doing since your last visit?" When I would tell him, the answer would be, "There's nothing I can do?" Or he would shrug his shoulders. I confided in him, that I had been sexually abused as a child and he shrugged his shoulders. Once when he ask me how I was doing and I replied, "Very happy." He told me, "You do know you do have the option of being hospital."

Does not care about new patients and has no compassion for helping others.

Dr. Prikhojan is an extremely knowledgeable and compassionate practitioner, with all aspects of his patients' care his foremost objective. Dr. Prikhojan takes time to understand any issues or concerns I may have and I trust him completely with my care. I have enthusiastically recommended Dr. Prikhojan to others and I will continue to do so. In my opinion, we need more health care providers like Dr. Prikhojan.

Thankful Patient in Nashville, TN – Apr 19, 2016
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Prikhojan?
This doctor knew that I was allergic to a certain medicine, yet mistakenly prescribed the medicine and I need up having an allergic reaction to it because I made a mistake and took it. He failed to accept responsibility for his actions, and yet blamed the pharmacy. His billing department also wrote down my insurance wrong and never fixed that, making me responsible for over $300.00 out of pocket.
