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.

Dr. Kumar is wonderful pediatrician and makes all of her patients her priority.

Our youngest son has been seeing Dr Kumar since he was discharged from the NICU. She came highly recommended by the staff at the NICU. We couldn't be happier with her! We saw her almost weekly for the first few months after discharge. She always made me feel like my concerns were valid and helped find us a solution. We have since switched our other 4 kids to her. She has helped us through some of the hardest medical issues with our children. She is a very caring and compassionate doctor.
