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.

Super great guy!
I've been a patient of Dr. Iyengar for several years, and am so disappointed at some of the reviews left here. He is most personable, remembering both my medical issues as well as personal details. Always graciously spends all the time needed to discuss my concerns, and has always responded to calls if I have questions. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Iyangar!!

Lacked empathy was super fast
I felt rushed- I felt I was not given information to make a good decision. Like when I asked question he down played or didn’t acknowledge. Like he didnt care about my emotional state enough to explain things. I felt it was a lack of empathy and decided to check like I did in college for reviews. One review used my words and thoughts exactly. I felt like it was a mill. Not even a guess why my heart was doing whatever.

Could not get me out of the office fast enough. Did not address all the testing on this cardiac issue a had only a week prior. Appeared in a hurry and indifferent to my concerns and questions. Fortunately, the office staff let me schedule with another doctor for the next appointment. Pretty much an unhelpful rapid appointment.

Zero compassion or empathy, but happy to take your money and rush you out the door. Wouldn't listen, and put symptoms and medications I never mentioned or listed in my paperwork.
