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.

Good at guiding me
Telehealth
Though less personable than my previous neurologist, Dr. Thankappan has helped me quite a bit over the past year. With my old neurologist I felt like I was in the driver's seat and had me making uneducated decisions, but Dr. Thankappan has been much better at guiding me and giving advice that he thinks is the right decision.

I had the worst experience of my life with Dr Thankappan. He called me and told me I have STD, but I knew that's impossible. So I requested to be tested again. But I had to wait 10 days for a redo, of course the worste 10 days of my life. The result of the 2nd test was negative and Dr Thankappan never bothered to tell me the good news though, what a shame!!
