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. Petkovich interrupted me several times & wasn’t listening to me. Therefore when he repeated things “I said” to him, he often got the information wrong. My BP was extremely high from it normally running high & being in extreme pain. He never questioned it or retested me. Instead he indicated in his notes that he couldn’t take my BP b/c I wouldn’t sit/hold still. He has a terrible bedside manner & bad communication skills.
What went well

What could be improved
  • I didn't feel respected
  • Didn't listen or answer questions
