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."
