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.

We switched our children to Dr. Jafri when my son was born in December. My son recently had an ER visit for a very high fever. Dr. Jafri listens and asks a lot of questions before making a decision. He shows concern and provides thorough information. He is proactive but not quick to medicate, which I like as well. I fully trust him in his decisions. One of the best decisions I made for my childrens health was switching to him!!

We love Dr. Jafri! He's not to quick to prescribe antibiotics and is always willing to see our daughter in an emergency.
