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.

Dr. Drake has a pleasant beside manner. He is compassionate and cares about his patients. I recommend him to people.

Personable and caring
I had my ovary and fallopian tube removed. My Dr passed the surgery to Dr Drake so it could be done with the robot. When I met Dr Drake for the first time it was like I had known him for years. He is so kind, down to earth and caring. He had actually read my chart and knew my medical history. That was refreshing. He sat with me and answered any questions and made sure I was comfortable before he left the room. So much so that I am switching to be one of his patients.

The BEST OBGYN Period
Dr. Drake is absolutely wonderful. He delivered our second daughter and the entire pregnancy, delivery, and follow up appointments were night and day from our first experience. He takes time with you, addresses your concerns, and genuinely cares for and about his patients. I recommend him to everyone! I have been so blessed in finding him to be my doctor. It almost makes me sad we’re done having babies.
