- Vitals"Dr Virparia is extremely, knowledgeable, detail oriented, patient and compassionate. The one couldn't ask for a better doctor."
- Dr. Racheleidelman.com"This facility deserves a 0 star rating... They ran up a bill, but did nothing to fix his problem. He died 3 days ago at his home. I lay the blame squarely on the doctors who did not treat him as a priority patient."
