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.

Terrible!!!
This doctor will pat herself on the back for nothing. No diagnosis or treatment yet she will tell you how great she is. She won't listen to you and talk over you the entire time. This doctor needs to be removed from her duties as she does nothing!!!

I have taken my daughter to this doctor twice now and will NEVER return. She has no care for actual patients. Told us she took offense after we took so long to return after her first appointment. Told my 7 year old daughter she wasn't doing enough to lose weight. Never took into account other medical issues that my daughter was having. Transferred to another practice and her office has yet to send the paperwork. She should not be working with pediatric patients.

I have had experience with Kerkar, I would not recommend her to anyone she doesn't listen to the patients needs and she is always trying to prove that she is right and that everyone else is wrong. One time I need a medication from her and she didn't even read the prescription that the Nurse Practitioner had given her she just signed away. Because of her not reading the prescription fully she almost cost me my life.
