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 is very approachable, knowledgeable and can clearly explain things. Its easy to get through to the office and they always follow up. In addition, he readily refers patients to experts when necessary. I've been seeing the Dr. for over 25 years and know that I am in good hands. I've recommended him to many friends and family members

Excellent Physician!
Was looking for a new primary care physician and I couldn’t have been more impressed. Dr Eckman (and his staff) are very pleasant, thorough, and professional. He takes the time to get to know you as a patient, not just a number. Highly recommend Dr. Eckman and Springside Internal Medicine.

Great Doctor
Dr. Eckman is the most thorough Doctor I’ve ever had. He welcomes questions and takes the time to explain to you in layman terms. He will also illustrate what’s going on in your body. He does all of this with efficiency. The office staff is exceptional as well.

Dr. Eckman is everything you look for in a primary healthcare physician; he is very thorough and gives you all the information you need to make sound decisions regarding your health. He always outlines pros and cons to any medication being prescribed and often points to studies to validate results. Without a doubt have and will continue to recommend him.

Dr. Eckman is the BEST !!!!!!!! He is very thorough without being an alarmist. He is kind. He is factual, and he is easy to talk with. His staff is absolutely wonderful, too. Very welcoming and very helpful. It is so reassuring to know that someone so caring is watching over my health (and that of my husband) ! Janis K. Seward, Akron, Ohio
