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.

Unprofessional and full of himself
I had a follow up visit scheduled with this doctor, and he cancelled the day of - I had to reschedule. On the day of the next appointment, he cancelled the day of - I had to reschedule. I asked the nurse why does this keep happening? She wasn't able to tell me. On the day of the 3rd appt, I had the time in my phone wrong and arrived 10 min late. To aggravate the situation, the express check in kiosk froze on me mid-check in and even the front desk woman wasn't able to check me in because the kiosk had me locked up. The Dr refused to see me because I was late. I asked her to call the nurse back and explain how I'd been rescheduled twice already surely he could reconsider. Nope! I sat in the parking lot and changed my primary doctor right there.

We were at the urgent care for 4 hours. All staff and nurses were great, all but Dr. Suliman Rastgar. I tried to have a discussion with Dr. Rastgar by bringing up my sons medical history to see if it was related to his injury and he exclaimed "I DO NOT TAKE DIRECTION FROM YOU" and began lecturing while I was mid-sentence. I said that as a mother “I’m trying to have a discussion about my son's health, and not challenge your authority” but I could not get a word in. I was humiliated in front of my son, for being his advocate and belittled for attempting to provide medical history in hopes it may help. To Suliman Rastagar - To be referred to as a doctor is an honor. Every patient arrives at your urgent care with a story and a set of their concerns. We may just be another patient to you, but to me, my son is my world. If you cannot sympathize, or empathize, it doesn't matter if you have healing hands - you are in the wrong profession.
