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 Lakkis has wonderful insight and knowledge of all aspects of kidney disease and dialysis. He is kind and engaging. Easy to understand his directions.

My experiences are always comforting because I know Dr. Lakkis is informative and cares about my health. He is extremely thorough. He reviews and compares my previous status and any documents that I bring. He asks appropriate questions and spends time answering any questions that I have. He facilitates necessary testing and current needed inoculations. He is without a doubt a caring physician and asset to the Rogosin Institute. I would highly recommend his services.

Dialysis patients always have physical problems such as gout, constipation, tiredness, etc. I know he must have heard it a thousand times from other patients but his willingness to listen to it again individually as he makes his rounds and patiently talk to them is very reassuring.
