In patients' words

"My complaint is as follows... I have never been so upset and distraught over the handling of my case. The office manager at Irani's office is not diligent. I feel like his office could care less."

— ObesityHelp User Review

"I love D. Naik and his staff... Excellent Dr. takes his time to really talk to you. Office wait is really quick too. I had Bariatric surgery and I'm very happy with him as a surgeon and a follow up doctor."

— Vitals User Review

"He seems like a professional and honest doctor. However, his staff is horrible. They are rude and give vague information on purpose just to get money out of people."
