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.

One Star Too Many!
Dr. Sinha was totally inattentive, and rudely took phone calls while I was talking to him during his hastily conducted exam, in what turned out to be a totally worthless consultation. When I explained my preference for non-robotic surgery due to the negative consequences robotics would be more likely to have on my particular procedure, the doctor became arrogant and effectively said I would have to accept robotics or go somewhere else---going somewhere else being a no-brainer. Another issue is this doctor's manhandling of his patient, as he proceeded to quickly shove my protruding hernia back into the hernia wall, causing excruciating pain. Dr. Sinha had zero interest in me as a patient, the severity of my condition, or in providing any semblance of compassionate, professional care.

Surgeon/doctor Sinha is top notch. He is very patient, gentle and friendly. He didn’t make us feel rushed, he spent time listening to us and answered our questions with care and knowledge. After the surgery, he went to the visitor waiting room looking for my husband and gave him a thorough update. He also talked to be briefly at the recovery room as I was still fight of the anesthesia. At some point, I woke up again while he was walking by, he waved his hand at me and smiled under the mask. He has a great, warm smile (we saw his video clips & had a telehealth visit with him) that give people trust and safe feeling. Highly recommend doctor Sinha!

The most talented, compassionate, kind and caring surgeon I’ve ever known. I’m so lucky to have been under his care for a bilateral hernia repair.
