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.

Don’t waste time/money with Advani
This doctor loves to run unnecessary tests, and doles out medication, instead of finding the cause of the problem. She usually never knows what an abnormal test result means as well. She’s just a moneymaker to make her stats look good.

We went for yearly physical checkup to Sutter health and choose her. The doctor ordered preventative antibody tests which were not covered by Aetna insurance and cost us $213 and she also charged us for full visit for recommending OTC cream for a corn which we were already using. She did not do any through examination during physicals and took it for granted. We were charged $340 for a physical visit without being informed about that. we thought Sutter health and Aetna had better tie-ups and see what we got from these worst service providers who want to rip off their customers and doctors trained for that.
