If I were only reviewing the doctor I'd give 5 stars. He is excellent. Unfortunately, his office and staff, not so much. Even during a pandemic they pack their waiting room. There were over 20 people one afternoon and no hope of social distancing. This morning there are 15 people. No windows, poor ventilation and no way to keep a safe distance from others in the room. Not sure why they schedule so many people at the same time.

Dr. Gupta misdiagnosed my father and 6 weeks later he passed away. His words to me after he told us his heart was fine were "why are you upset, everything fatal is off the table" He then sent us to a hospital that he doesn't even go to and never gave us another thought. POOR MEDICAL DIAGNOSTIC SKILLS!

He knows his trade but like some doctors they need to drum up business. He hangs out in the hospital looking for future prospects. (Smart man)
