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.

In 2013 I was diagnosed with stage III possibly stage IV melanoma. The oncology surgeon gave me the poor prognosis with a life expectancy of around 6 months. From that office I was taken to the hematology office to see if there were any type of therapy or options that may extend my life expectancy. This is where I met Dr. Nair. He took the time to listen to me although I think I do remember him rolling his eyes a couple of times. (LOL) YOU see I am critical care nurse working in the facility where Dr. Nair was practicing. He took the time to listen to my medical history and not jump to conclusions based on the melanoma diagnosis. I told him that I had for the past few years had a group of symptoms that no one could find a cause. I think I saw a light bulb go off above his head as he listen to my symptoms. I wasn't sure if that was a good sign or a bad sign. He left the room and came back with a printed handout ,asked me to read over it and this is where I got my first diagnosis of a very rare lymphoma. Had it not been for Dr. Nair 20 years ago I certainly would not be here today. He walked me through the diagnosis process and the interventions. He responded immediately to my emails. I am sure he must of once again rolled his eyes and thought nurses got to be the worst patient's. I am thankful and here today doing very well because of Dr. Nair being who he is and in right pace at right time to save my life.

Can't think outside of a textbook
There was zero compassion. He even said “I don't know why youre here.” My PCP and vascular surgeon referred me to help with a chronic DVT. Not only did he not listen to my concerns, he advised that I stop anticoagulant treatment during my monthly periods that the drug had caused to return. I had been in menipause for 8 years prior. He offered zero help when I explained he was my last hope to dissolve the clot so I could get a hysterectomy. A quality doctor would have tried to find another doctor or surgeon that could offer help or hope. He dismissed my pain as cramps and called me suicidal when I was begging him for help. He may be good at oncology, but as far as a caring human, he's far from it. Luckily, two days later, my gynecologist was able to work with my pcp and refer to a colleague from another hospital. This nightmare will soon be over. He is absolutely not able to treat you with compassion or dignity.

I am sure he is using recommended guidelines, but when I asked to discuss my cancer specifically, taking into account my personal test results, he was totally unprepared. He eventually told me to agree to his blanket 10-year treatment plan or go all natural with someone else. So there is no possibility for personalized treatment.

I am so thankful to know Dr Nair I was at another cancer center where I was not being treated correctly for 3 years. Dr Nair has given me answers and what I ?? with the new medicine that I am on the right track, new hope. The staff is so caring from receptionist and lab to all in the back. Thank you seems so small to say but I am so grateful. Blessings Diana

I'm very happy that others experience with Dr Nair has been better than our families. My father is 68. A disabled vet whose body is covered with shrapnel and who has also broke his back and tailbone when hit with 2 mortar rounds and subsequently reinjured. Recently he was diagnosed with STAGE 4 cancer. A mass was found on his lungs that was malignant as well as his kidney and a lymphnode near his liver.He was then treated with chemo.He must be smart but we've seen very little evidence of it.

Dr.Nair worked around the holiday schedule to see my daughter (21 y/o). We never felt rushed and he spent quality time and care with us. We were in complete understanding in the treatment plan when we left his office.
