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 guy saved my butt!!
Telehealth
From the beginning he hit it off! He asked me if I was a gambling man. I didn’t get where he was going. I told him I go to the casino a lot. He said what did I need to gable? I said money!! He said not for this gamble. You need heart!! From that first minute the guy had my trust. His record spoke for itself. It’s been almost 4 years and I will never forget the gamble we took together. I’d put my last buck on him to win!! .. Again!!

Dr. Takeda gets five stars because he did an excellent job on my moms bypass surgery. My only issue, is that he does not have a personality. He is really reserved when speaking to family members. You get comfortable only because you know he is a top doctor in his field. His personality doesn't give you the warm, and fuzzy like most American doctors. Japanese culture is very reserved, I feel he needs to be a bit more personable. I felt like he was too robotlike in his delivery.

Dr. Takeda was my surgeon for my heart transplant on December 12, 2015. Everything went so smoothly , no problems. I had some questions after I was home and I called and left a message with his secretary and he called me right back with the answers to my questions, I would definitely recommend him to my family and friends and to anyone I know. I thank him for performing my transplant.
