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.

The first time I had a consultation for a colonoscopy I felt very comfortable and she is very approachable . It’s my first time colonoscopy screening at age 47, she was able to see the small abnormal lesion in my colon , which turned out to be a stage 3 metastatic cancer. I would never forget how nice and direct she was when she told me of my diagnosis and promptly ordered thd needed tests and also referred me to a very good surgeon . Since then I’ve been recommending her to a lot of my friends and coworkers for their colonoscopy screening. Thank you very much Dr. Chokhavatia! You essentially saved my life just because you were very good at your job ! From the bottom of my heart , thank you!

Dr. Chokhavatia was very kind and very professional in her office as well as pre and post colonoscopy procedure at Valley Hospital . This was my first personal encounter although I witnessed the same when my husband was seen and had an endoscopy/colonoscopy two years ago. The office staff were also very friendly and helpful. Dr. Chokhavatia spent quality time discussing my care and I never felt rushed. I definitely recommend Dr. Chokhavatia.

Extremely rude and has terrible bedside manner. Blamed my symptoms on eating red meat and smoking - both of which I don’t do. Could care less about my dibilitating symptoms.

Saw her last year for the first time. She did her own patient intake. Performed the needed procedures. Excellent bedside manner.

waited a long time for first visit; very disappointed as doctor gave me all of five minutes; felt very rushed and left without understanding of anything. she had read all she wanted to know on records in computer & didn't want me to recount anything additional...... which I felt was relevant and which was not on computer and forms filled out in the office.
