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 Hook 5 - Staff ZERO
I have been a patient of Dr Hook for years. He cares about his patients.Recently he has a new office staff and the young girl is terrible. The young man doesn’t seem to know what to do. When a patient with NO appointment (patient wanted to be seen about 3 hours early) is taken back, and the patient WITH the appointment is told she is ‘next’. UNACCEPTABLE!

So glad to have found Dr. Hook
Dr. Hook is a font of information. He provided information that helped me understand why I am having issues AND how to effectively care for myself moving forward. It is such a relief to have a specialist that assumes I am capable of understanding medical information!

Excellent!
Dr Hook performed a Lapiplasty Bunion surgery with excellent results. He and his staff always go above and beyond with their care and concern. I would highly recommend him to anyone who has foots problems. A special thanks to his assistant Robbie, who was so helpful and efficient in the process.
