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.

Whom ever has her as a doctor is lucky
She gets to the point of what you came in for and gets treatment fast. She cares she’s is there for you. Thank up above I didn’t go by her reviews she is way beyond a a 2.5 I’m aiming her at a 10. Glad to meet you Dr. and happy to know you.

I saw this physician as a new patient for a skin check and when she walked in she snarked at me and said 'why are you here' and then said 'put your phone down' in the most horrible tone of voice. Additionally, any questions I asked her she couldn't give an answer too and was blatantly rude the whole appointment. I asked her the accuracy of a test she was recommending and she told me 'well you should know nothing is 100%' and when I said I knew that I meant like what's the accuracy in general and that I understood nothing was perfect. She then said she 'didn't have an answer to that'. I feel if you are recommending a medical test you should be able to give information to the patient about that. The blatant disrespect I received during this appointment is unacceptable and I would never recommend this physician to anyone.

Dr Chavda was very pleasant and thorough. Explained issues and follow up wound care patiently. Will return.

Sub Par Care
Dr. was running late and explained she had an emergency with an elderly couple which is perfectly fine with me, I hope if I required extra time she would spend it with me. But she rushed through my new patient appointment, froze pre cancerous cell off my face (which are back less than 1 month later) and biopsied a spot on my lower back. I asked her about the real reason I was there, I have a new funny raised brown spot on my face, she told me to use acne medicine and it would go away, it has NOT. If she spent 15 minutes with me from beginning to end she spent a lot of time with me and I was a new patient this was my first visit to the practice. Care was sub par

Sadly out-of-touch
I was first met by a medical assistant who seemed friendly and warm, asked all the usual questions, and listened intently to my replies. When she left the room, I heard the doctor discussing my case with her, and sending her back to ask two more simple questions. It seemed odd, until the doctor came in with two observers. She never acknowledged them, or explained why they were there. Then she began the examination, but no matter what I had to say, she spoke over me, as if I was just another piece of meat to be handled. I got no sense of engagement. No sense of care. I was simply the next patient to be dispensed with. I will not be returning.

Dr. Chavda was the rudest, most dismissive, unprofessional Dr. I have ever seen. She would be better off as a customer service rep for the cable company where she would fit right in.

I have never been more rushed during a doctor visit ever! She came in the room and I asked her about some bumps on my skin. She said she could freeze them off but did not give me any other options. She then left the room and I had to get the assistant to go get her so I could finish asking more questions about other parts of my body. She interrupted me before I could finish and said there's nothing you can do about that and left the room.

I visited Dr. Chavda's office several times, and when I tried to call her regarding a follow-up question, she refused to call me back. I left several messages over the course of many weeks, but never received a call back. This is the worst customer service I have ever received from a medical professional. Her lack of interest in following up with me illustrates her blatant disinterest in her patients’ well-being. I would never recommend her to any family or friends.

Firstly, let me state I would highly recommend Dr.Chavda. She is a first class, professional dermatologist . I have been a patient of Dr. Chavda for several years. Secondly, I was with 2 other doctors and received no results whatsoever. However, when I switched to Dr. Chavda she immediately diagnosed my problem .. gave me a treatment plan and the ending result was extraordinary. Thirdly, I was very glad I took my friend's recommendation and switch to Dr. Chavda. The staff is very nice there also
