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 listens to me, answers my questions,is very supportive and caring.

I really appreciated how the clinic worked with me to make sure I am seen soon enough depending on my symptoms. The fist available visit in person was months away and I was instructed to describe what I needed in MyChart and I got a much sooner virtual appointment which was perfect for what I needed as followup then. Thank you to Dr Rama and his staff!

I was very impressed with the quality of care I received from this doctor. He was patient, answered all my questions, did a good job explaining his theory of what was going on with my body, he had a good sense of humor, did not appear rushed, sounded like he cared about me. I have already recommended him to two different people.
