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.

Top Notch - Simply the Best
In or about December of 2023, when I heard the words 'Stage 4 Colon Cancer', my heart sank and I just started crying, not sure where my life would be going. From that moment forward, Dr. Varki and his team at RCCA became my family. Due to weekly treatments, blood tests, infusions, etc., the stability and love that they provided is something that I will never forget. Dr. Varki and his team placed me on several different treatment plans and, 15 months later, I am proud to say that my scans are clean and, as of this moment, I am off all treatment. Of course, I still know that the battle may not be done, however due to Dr. Varki and his team, I feel more confident than ever that I can beat this dreaded disease. Cancer sucks. Dr. Varki and his team are special. I cannot recommend him enough.

Dr Varki is excellent
I am not a cancer patient so cannot speak to that. Dr Varki has been treating me for a year for a blood issue. He is patient and kind. Very compassionate and reassuring. Explains things well and answers all my questions. I feel safe and valued with him.

Dr. Varki is always a delight to interact with. He takes meticulous notes (via laptop) and refers to them for accurate information and dates. He is thorough, asks key questions, and listens to your concerns. The office is easy to find, is on a bus route, and plentiful parking steps away.

Very nice and very helpful
Dr. Varki visited me while I was hospitalized with a saddle pulmonary embolism and got me through a tough situation. He set my mind and my wife's mind at ease with the treatment he provided. My follow up appointment was also very well handled with him and his staff.
