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.

Our Guardian Angel
We met Dr Parayeth at a very low time in our lives in ICU. He was so comforting & the only one who actually gave us hope. His bedside manner is impeccable. He explained everything so that we could understand, & we did. He went right to work in tackling my husband's infection & I credit him with saving his life. He will always be our Angel. Thank you again, Dr Parayeth- Angel on Earth1

Absolutely amazing doctor! His bedside manner is kind & caring. He followed my father very closely & I put all my trust in him when it came to my father's condition. This doctor can read a scan like no one else & I refused to let anything go forward without him on board. He even called my father after discharge to see how he was doing. I cannot thank him enough for going above and beyond for my family.

Saved My Dad's Life - Kind and Competent
Dr. Parayath has been treating my father, who has a number of complicated health issues, during a lengthy hospital stay. First, Dr. Parayath has impeccable bedside manner. He makes my family feel as though my father is his only patient. He listens intently to our concerns, takes time to explain his course of action, and is genuinely overjoyed with my father's improvement. Secondly, Dr. Parayath saved my father's life. He has been discharged from the hospital many times without answers. Dr. Parayeth has closely monitored cultures and has changed antibiotics accordingly. He was persistent in his search for the cause of infection, which was discovered and treated. It wasn't until Dr. Parayath was brought on board that my family's concerns were taken seriously. My father went from septic in ICU to smiling in a regular room, thanks to Dr. Parayeth. I cannot recommend Dr. Parayath highly enough. My family will forever be grateful for his kindness and competence.

HIs office is hard to reach, answ serv always on and remits message to office. His office keeps canceling my new patient appointments, in August, Sept, and now October 2016. The last time his office canceled said the doctor will be out indefinitely and do not know when and if he will return. Then I spoke with the Office Manager who said she will put me on a waiting list if another patient cancels an appointment. This is a direct contradiction, isn't he suppose to be out indefinitely?
