Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Amazing Experience

The doctor is excellent. Thoughtful and responsive
My concern is the person who took my urine and my blood. (1) I do not recall her name but she has a large tattoo n r arm. (2) She was very demeaning to me. She lectured me and said I was dehydrated and blamed me for not giving sufficient urine sample and for her not being able to find a vein. (3) It has been almost a week and I still have a large bruise on my arm. (4) She also called out to another employee and asked in front me whether my urine sample was enough for the test to be given. Her tone was dismissive and critical. (5) She needs training in technique and in client care. .

Wonderful experience!! Short wait, wonderful staff, and Dr. Akine was one of the most personable and detailed doctors I’ve visted. He spent a long time going over my medical history, how it has affected my kidney’s, what that looks like now, and so on! Beneficial visit for my health and very educational.
