Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep the reviews trustworthy, honest & fair.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

Dr. Khwaja is kind, friendly and a wonderfully intuitive listener. He was able to really listen and then put into words what I was feeling. He made me feel hopeful and put together a treatment plan that addressed all my concerns. I would highly recommend Dr. Khwaja for anyone looking for a psychiatrist who cares about his patients and that will provide a holistic approach.
