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.

All excellent

I don’t remember a lot about the summer I received ECT, but I remember Dr. Chacko’s compassion. He did save my life, and although the treatment can be tough, going through it with him by my side made it easier.

After months of inpatient/outpatient at a hospital in another city, our daughter was getting worse, not better. We sent her files to Dr. Chacko. He realized that she had been misdiagnosed. He sat with us and showed us the flaws in her original diagnosis, as if he were pealing an onion one layer at a time; a child could have understood him. He then showed us the accurate diagnosis, and why. He was kind, approachable, and humble. He is brilliant! God used him to save our daughter's life!
