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 doctor that is very helpful
He helped my mom twice when she went to the emergency and had the flue. She is an older lady in her 80s. He ordered all the necessesary equipment such as the oxygen machine, meldicaiton, nebulizer, and inhaler for her treatement. He also took my mother on an emergency basis without an appointment when she was not feeling well.

To say Dr. Farooki does not provide trauma informed care is putting it lightly. His approach is dangerous and fails to account for a patient’s holistic wellbeing.

Horrible pulmonary specialist SHOULD have his license revoked. Refused to call me and give me specific details about having lung cancer. Told me I was uneducated and couldn't explain it to me because I wouldn't understand medical terms, mind you I have a PhD. when I first called front desk to set up an appointment the first thing they said they couldn't see me because my insurance and that I should first to get a referral. Clearly all he cares about is money.
