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.
Destroyed my life. Still paying for his errors and complete lack of care 7 years later! I hope he’s done operating. Do not goto this man.

Dr Radke and his crew are world class doctors, nurses and staff. People have no idea what a brilliant group of doctors his and his group is. I have been all over the world and have never been more happy than with his fine team.

best Dr I have ever had. He saved my life twice. No one else would touch my gallbladder because of the many large cysts I have on my liver. He took out my gallbladder and removed as many cysts as he could. he is professional yet he will sit down and really talk to you. I have never found his equal since I moved.

Excellent, professional, funny, big dude. I've been a patient twice. I won't think twice about any possible future treatments, and would recommend to anyone. The nurses even chimed in about their approval of Dr. Radke without question.

Dr. Radke is an excellent surgeon. He is very calm and is focused on educating his patients so that they are aware of every aspect of what is to occur. I have had 2 surgeries performed by Dr. Rake and he and his staff are wonderful.

Dr Radke is an excellent surgeon with a good bed side manner.He is knowledgeable in his craft.
My only complaint is the office visits. We have had 3 office visits, each visit we have waited over an hour to get in to see him. The staff have had difficulty operating the scales and blood pressure cuffs. When Dr. Radke came in, he spent less than 5 minutes with my son and told us the exact same thing as the two prior visits. My time is valuable. I felt disrespected.
