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.

She is a highly intelligent Doctor with lots of experience and takes some time with you.

She was great. Very unclear as to what the problems were but it jut seemed she was able to say "I don't know" and THANK GOD for such humility in a physician. Seriously, she IS busy. Better to say oops and admit she's confusing patients than pretend. Maybe she lost a patient. She must lose many. I felt true concern. She told charge when she didn't know why I had certain symptoms but she immediately made a referral to the appropriate discipline. So all thumbs up fir YOU, Dr Daraban Lora

I am absolutely surprised by the two reviews I just read. This is my third visit with Dr. Daraban and I am so pleased with the treatment she gave me and the clarity of her explanation of my tests. Sometimes there are these people out there that are never happy with anything. She has never looked disheveled.

On the several occasions I've met with Dr. Daraban, she always appears disheveled and exhausted. I'm an atypical cardiac patient and have many questions regarding my diagnosis but Dr. Daraban just doesn't seem to have the answers and/or time to offer any explanation. Unfortunately, (just like many others in the medical field) Dr. Daraban is belittling, condescending and incapable of humbling herself in an effort to understand/relate to her patients. Very frustrating and not recommended.

Dr daraban was my cardio consult when I was admitted to Saratoga hospital. She hadn't consulted my chart , so wasn't fully informed of my symptoms....appeared disinterested and impatient to spend a few more minutes with me to answer my questions. She then proceeded to the other bed in my room and gave them the wrong information regarding their diagnosis and when questioned , said " oh, I must be confusing your case with another patient, I've seen so many today". This does not instill trust.
