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.

Unfortunately had a bad experience all around, from having 1 appointment turn into 2 unnecessarily(costing me extra money), to not accomplishing anything towards mitigating some of the issues I sought help for, and his office was greatly unhelpful, along with the UW system itself. The outcome of my visit was about as helpful as a screen door on a submarine. Seek help elsewhere.

POTS Patient in Madison, WI – Jun 29, 2018
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Viswanathan?
I saw Dr. Ravi Viswanathan for an immune related problem. He did run some tests related to my immune function. Despite having very impaired immune system and poor health/functionality he offered no help towards treatment and when I advocated for myself and asked for his help was offered "no" as his only answer. He did not listen well to my clinical picture and wrote himself off as being any help and I could sense this within 10 minutes of meeting him-this turned out to be very true.
