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.

AVOID THIS DOCTOR AT ALL COSTS!
Dr. Kesara was my primary care physician for several years. I discovered from my pharmacy (NOT my doctor) that my prescription would not be renewed until I scheduled an office visit. I did so immediately... but later learned that my doctor still refused to give a "bridge prescription" for blood pressure medication. Again, this prescription is not for a controlled substance but a simple (but necessary) blood pressure med. They simply told me to go to Urgent Care or an ER if I wanted meds before my appointment (which had already been scheduled). Perhaps Dr. Kesara should re-read his Hippocratic Oath to "do no harm." I am changing doctors immediately! I suggest everyone else avoid him and the atrocious Banner system altogether.

I have been seeing Dr. Kesara for a few years now and couldn't be happier. He is truly concerned about my health and I know he always has what's best for me on his mind. He always responds to my emails and I could not be in better hands.

In one word. Excellent. He is very patient, listens carefully, and is willing to spend considerable time with the patient. Never rushes. Staff is pleasant. I would give him 5 stars unhesitatingly and recommend him to my friends. My wife and I are happy that we have him as our family physician.

Great Doctor, We are visiting him since years, he cares a lot. I was just checking for something in web and I found 3.5 STAR rating for him, He deserves 5+ STAR rating, then I immediately felt I should give review from my side and explain my experience to all the people. I have been visiting him since years, he always treats patients with utmost care and he him self goes into patience's shoes and explain very clearly and takes care of them. I would surely recommend him.

My husband & I have been patients of Dr Kesara for about 5 years, between this practice and his other medical practice before Banner. He has worked out very well for both of us. He takes the time to listen, ask questions and his follow up has been very timely. He has treated me for a range of issues over the years and I have been very satisfied with his care. Even though his current location at Alma School is some distance for me, I drive over to him, because he is very good at what he does.

My family has been seeing Dr. Kesara for over a year now. Today I was FIVE MINUTES late to an appt due to construction traffic that had popped up over night and was told the dr had given instructions that I had to reschedule. I have of course waited for him multiple times when he was late, but apparently his time is more valuable than mine in his mind. I have also had trouble scheduling appointments in the past when I was very ill and ended up going to urgent care. I’M DONE. Find another dr

We moved from Ohio and getting a family Med dr was on my to do list, but an urgent need came up. It was easy to schedule pretty quickly, didn’t wait long & Dr Kesera quickly got to the bottom of the issue without feeling rushed.
