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.

Would not recommend Dr. Dlouhy to family, friends, or anyone else for that matter. He would make me believe he was going to do something and then do something completely different or not at all. On one follow up visit he literely implied to both my wife and I that I was one oxycodone pill away from becoming a street heroin addict! Since I had suffered from and had been treated for chronic back pain following a 7/11/98 accident. He treated me like I was drug/doctor seeking addict!

Dr. Dlouhy is an absolutely amazing surgeon. We thank God everyday for his skill, his compassion, and his knowledge. Without Dr. Dlouhy, our 14 year old daughter would not be alive today. He was there the night she suffered such a devastating brain bleed. He performed a miracle operation! He was there every single day after, every day of the week and on the weekends. He is truly an amazing person and will forever hold a special place in our family. We owe him so much for what he has given to us.
