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.

My primary care doctor referred me to Doctor Swami concerning a mild cardiac condition. I was extremely impressed with her skill and knowledge as a physician, her engaging personality and the high level of care she provides to her patients. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a high quality cardiologist. Dr. Swami is the best.

Dr. Swami is an exceptionally knowledgeable and caring cardiologist. She and her team were instrumental in detecting a dangerous aortic aneurysm and then in referring me to a surgeon who is renowned for doing complicated aortic repairs successfully. A year post-surgery, I am blessed that Dr. Swami will be assessing my progress and any future challenges.

Dr Swami is a wonderful lady and doctor. Her bedside manners are excellent and she makes me feel comfortable in an uncertain time. She is very thorough and looks not only at the obvious but also the not so obvious. I'm thankful for Dr Swami, her knowledge and expertise. I would recommend her to everyone.
