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.

Wonderful doctor
Great Dr. Always spot on with diagnosis. Listens to you. Very easy to talk to.

No proper communication
So we made an appointment, gathered records from other doctor Fred had been seeing. Even went a few days early to fill out paperwork and not once was it mentioned that they could not see us with an HMO insurance. So today we went hoping to finally see the doctor; and we were turned away. Why in the world would this not have been communicated sooner???? Maybe indicative that another doctor office will serve us better.

Thankful for Dr. Sharma and his team
I've attended several appointments with my husband, who is the patient. We took my husband to Dr. Sharma for a 2nd opinion, he has addressed medical concerns that another doctor dismissed. My husband needed surgery and it was promptly addressed and followed up on by Dr. Sharma (after 9 months of incorrect testing and treatment by a medical group in Sebring). We are thankful and very happy with the care of Dr. Sharma and his team!

I HAVE BEEN GOING TO DR SHARMA FOR 4 OR 5 YEARS AND I THOUGHT HE WAS A GOOD DR. HOWEVER IN THE PAST YEAR HE HAS BEEN VERY LAX IN MY CARE. I HAD ANOTHER DOCTOR CONTACT HIM ABOUT CHECKING MY KIDNEYS AND HE SAID HE'S CRAZY THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH YOUR KIDNEYS. THAT'S BEEN 8 MONTHS AGO I HAVE BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH STAGE 3 KIDNEY DISEASE AND I HAVE CYSTS ON MY KIDNEYS AND MY LIVER WHICH HAS BEEN THERE 2 YEARS. IF YOU ARE GOING TO HIM, STOP. MY SISTERS DIED 2 YRS AGO AND HE WAS ALSO THEIR DOCTOR ONE OF KIDNEY FAILURE AND ONE OF LIVER CANCER . I THINK HE WAS JUST GOING TO LET ME DIE. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE.

I have cancer which was suspected by Dr. Sharma. I had a biopsy and a PET/CA. The results were given to him on Monday, January 6, 2020. Thus far, he has not responded in spite of his staff leaving him notes to call me. I am extremely disappointed.

Believe in his care as I was very sick and he called even at eight o'clock at night to make sure I was getting the care I needed and got me taken care of within the week, unlike the Michigan doctors, who were just putting me off for my treatment for two or three weeks. His staff are excellent.

Patient, treats his patients as if they are the only one he has to see. Answers all questions, kind, personable and can have a conversation with his patients. Down to earth, very good health consciousness. Not just a "job" for him. Office staff bends over backwards for him out of great care and respect.

I think it is time for him to retire, he has way to many patients and not enough time for them, he is rude and hates being asked questions, doctors should want their patients to be involved in any decisions regarding their care, you are only a number and a dollar sign to him. I also recommend that if you are elderly stay far away from him because you will not get the same care as a young person, is always in a hurry and as for the wait time it's at least an hour. Do not go there.....

Sick of this office. They put my loved one on narcotics and then constantly are lapsing and causing him to go through withdrawal symptoms. There are several office assistant and they all will give you a different answer and then point fingers at each other. Nobody holds accountability.

I found this Dr to be insulting. He ridiculed me and told me I worry about things when I do not, i never said anything to him to even indicate that. I saw him one time, I'll never go back, not paying someone to ridicule and insult me
