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.

He was compassionate, he listened carefully and he took action immediately to start the process of relieving my pain.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Kumar?
Dr. Kumar is absolutely, positively awesome !!! He was sooooo very kind and understanding with my 90 yr old mother during her appointment for excruciating trigeminal neuralgia pain. He took a "wait and see" approach regarding additional treatment until we know for sure if the new medications she was prescribed will keep her pain level under control. He also explained in-depth the different surgical procedures currently available to treat her condition should the pain meds fail. He's our HERO !!!
