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.

Dr Zara saw me in a timely manner and took time to answer any questions that I asked. I didn't have a very long wait time nor did I feel rushed on my appt with him. Staff was courteous

Went to BlueGrass Renal for second opinion and Dr Sara was very informative and pleasant. I left with much better idea about my kidney disease and learned more than what I heard from the other group over several months.

Dr. Sara has been my Nephrologist since 2011. Excellent kidney doctor who preserved my kidney function over years so I do not get on dialysis. He sincerely cares about his patients. I would recommend Dr. Sara and BlueGrass Renal to anyone.

I went to Dr. Sara for he also does cosmetic procedures. However, he does not list this on his sign outside his office or in his office which I found very odd. I found him on Groupon listed as Advanced Skin and Vein Care. I went for a spider vein consultation and was told it was free. At the time of my visit, I waited 1.5 hours. I felt like this was because my consult was free. Well, free doesn't mean free with these people. They filed a claim with my insurance and sent me a bill for $60.
