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.

This doctor is so amazing,so understanding and listen to every word I told him about my pain and did my surgery and after care with such professionalism I can’t ever thank him enough. This man is amazing to say the very least.

Dr. K. removed my spleen. It couldn't have been better. He was very reserved but present. He answered all my questions and emails promptly. I was advised by my Hemotologist the it was doubtful that the surgery could be performed laprascopmy do to the size of the spleen. Do to his skill he was able to remove my spleen laparoscopic.
