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.

I didn't have any issues present but I went to him to establish a dermatologist. I was put in an exam room and he told me unless I had a problem not to worry. I had to ask him if he could look me over, reluctantly he did and found nothing out. A year later I have an issue. I call on a Thurs. leave a message they were closed but didn't put it on their recording, I call back on Mon. and cant been seen till 4 weeks later because of holiday closures. The lady told me to go to Urgent Care.

Dr Cook is great but the office staff is difficult to deal with. Answering machine usually picks up the phone and calls are not returned in a timely manner. Even our case worker with DOE commented this was the most difficult office they had ever dealt with.

Dr Cook has never been anything but helpful. He has diagnosed a variety of conditions I have and treated them successfully. He has performed 2 biopsies on my face and you could never tell they had been done. The staff is always courteous and helpful and reminders of appointments are always sent in advance.

I don't think that Dr. Cook really wanted to treat my child once we arrived at the office and he and his staff realized that we are black. Dr. Cook acted as if my 5 year old was a leper. She suffers from eczema, but it is a very mild case with an irritated spot on her wrist! The staff would not return my calls after that first visit, nor did they contact me as a courtesy for the follow-up visit that was schedule for 3 months later. After the treatment received, I wasn't returning anyway!
