How Doctar Ranks These Doctors

Doctar's Kolkata nephrologist directory states that doctor comparisons use verified patient reviews, experience and qualifications. Individual profiles also display qualifications, years of experience, ratings, consultation fees, hospital or clinic affiliation and available appointment slots. Hospital accreditation such as NABH/JCI is displayed on relevant doctor listings.

The available Doctar source does not provide enough information to independently verify a separate pay-for-placement policy. This page therefore does not claim that doctors are ranked independently of any commercial arrangements unless that information is explicitly stated by Doctar.
