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.

Very Unkind and Uncaring
Dr. Rita Sharma is condescending and disrespectful. I don't think she even bothered to hear about my symptoms. She went on a rant based on incorrect assumptions and wouldn't let it go even after I tried to restate the facts. I have never had such a bizarre and sad encounter with a physician.

Great, caring doctor.
Other than the fact that she is such a busy doctor, I have to say that she has been nothing but amazing with me. She is caring, asks questions, and wants to ensure you're healthy. She is so popular, it can be difficult to make appointments.

Disappointed
I have never felt more disrespected than during my visit with Dr. Sharma. She disregarded the majority of my issues and selected one to focus on and test for instead of asking for my prioritization of the issues I faced. Additionally, she had a very nasty attitude and any question or comment I had was met with passive aggression and a condescending and dismissive demeanor. I was rushed and told there was no time and that I would just have to make another appointment to deal with the rest of my issues. Save yourself the trouble and go to a more professional, patient-centered provider.

If you can pick a different PCP, please do so. Rita Sharma does not care about your health, she will jump to conclusions and will not follow up with you for important medical conditions! Definitely not a way a medical professional should be behaving. Very unprofessional and rude. PLEASE AVOID!
