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.

My elderly father starting seeing Dr. Gowda after his former doctor would not take a foot wound seriously. She immediately had him admitted to the hospital- an action that ultimately spared his leg from being amputated. She is a thorough and kind presence in his life and he has never been healthier since becoming her patient.

Dr. Gowda has been my doctor for about 6 years. She is one of those rare doctors that treats the person and not just the ailment. I trust her completely and rely on her to send me to a specialist when needed. Most important, she hears me.

She's the best! She takes care of my son as if he's her own. She has a good sense of humor which seems to be nonexistent in most doctors lately. The wait is always short and the nurses are so kind and friendly. She is my favorite and I'm a very picky mom.
