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.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Rao?
Dr. Rao saved my life, so in my book she is a real hero. I was diagnosed with a very aggressive cancer 12 1/2 years ago. Chemo wasn't supposed to work on that form of cancer at that time, but Dr. Rao got on the Internet and found a new kind of chemo, which was still experimental. It had only been done for 2 years, but with very good results. She called the center that was doing it and got the information she would need to use that on me if I wanted to try it. Still cancer-free and thankful.
