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.

Missing records
Records are no longer available. Unable to locate where they are archived. Left everyone in a lurch. Cannot set up new machines without baseline sleep study information. This is awful and should not be tolerated

Dr. Chaparala was already running late when he came to see me because he worked a patient in who had no appointment. He often repeated himself, thus lengthening our session considerably. Despite all of this, he commented that I was making him late. He appeared impatient and upset. I have seen several sleep doctors, but unlike the others he seemed to think that I could overcome my chronic obstructive sleep apnea with cognitive techniques. I would never recommend Dr. Chaparala.

Life changing
Dr Chaparala helped me in ways I never thought possible. He gave me back my life that I thought was gone. The changes I experienced were nothing short of a miracle. My mood is amazing, energy through the roof, memory much improved and health improved. I recommend him to anyone looking to make a life changing difference in your life by simply using a CPAP. I could go on for hours about the improvements but for now THANK YOU DR CHAPARALA.
