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.

Excellent. Dr. Kapoor took all the time I needed to clearly explain my cancer and my options. She is compassionate, well trained and skilled.

I waited for over an hour, then was rushed through the appointment. When she got the results of my tests, she called me and told me I needed more tests and that her office would be in touch...I'm still waiting....She was not warm or compassionate when she told me it was probably precancerous....not nice

The '1 star' is only because 0 is not an option. Cold, insensitive, condescending. Worst, most unbelievable patient experience I've ever had. She picks and chooses which patients "deserve" respect, and, if something goes wrong, forget about her being ethical. She just removes herself from it to cover her own behind, without even so much as medical advice to prevent further complications, regardless of what the outcome may be. Cancer is already traumatic, don't let heartless doctors like her make the experience even worse.

Dr. Kapoor is wonderful, caring and so skilled. Going through this Anytime is so Very scary, let alone during Covid when the patient must go into the hospital w/out support/family. She alone made it doable. Thank you, Dr. Kapoor!

Dr. Kapoor is AMAZING! Finding out you have cancer is rough, but knowing you are in Dr. Kapoor's hands makes it so much easier. She is so knowledgeable, caring, kind, and supportive. I feel extremely grateful to have her in my life and supporting me through this process. We have survived three surgeries together (lumpectomy, nipple delay procedure, and double mastectomy) and I wouldn't have wanted to be with any other doctor. I thank her from the bottom of my heart!!!

Dr Kapoor is a wonderful surgeon. She had great bed side manners. Explains in detailed what you are going through. Is very sensitive to what I went through during this scary time. My surgery was a success and I can’t thank Dr Kapoor enough for saving my life. I would highly recommend Dr Kapoor. Alex, her assistant/nurse is also very nice and calming. This was a very scary time in my life and I’m thankful that Dr Kapoor took great care of me.
