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, Knowledgeable & Caring Doctor
Dr. Kumar has treated me through a long, difficult, and complicated infection. She fit me in quickly for my first appt, took steps to expedite diagnostic tests, followed up frequently in managing my case and coordinated with my other doctors. Dr. Kumar has responded promptly to portal questions or requests. She has made room for me in her schedule even when it is full. Dr. Kumar has been very generous in her time with me, making sure I thoroughly understand her decisions and care plan. She does this all while also being extremely personable and caring. I truly feel Dr. Kumar is committed to my recovery and overall health! (Side story - when I was first referred to Dr. Kumar, the referring doctor brought the referral out to the waiting room where the name was overheard by another patient. That patient said, 'you are going to love Rebecca Kumar - she is the best'. I couldn't agree more!)

Highly recommended
I was referred to Dr Kumar through my Gastroenterologist. He sent me to her to track down the cause of some troubling symptoms I was having. She was kind, thoughtful and thorough. She explained the process and what we were looking for. She gave me every confidence that we would find answers. And we did. I’m happy to give her my highest recommendation.
