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.

Good MD but not so Oncologist
spouse was diagnosed with carcinosarcoma which is a very aggressive form of Endo cancer. Treated her for three and a half months and on the third in person visit said the platinum based chemo wasn't working and the tumors were spreading. I was able to research and find information on the NIH website that said the efficacy of platinum based chemo was very low. so instead of researching or recommending a MMMT specialist we were told to find a clinical trial or second opinion. We felt that we were being dropped like a hot potato with no recourse. Needless to say my spouse passed 7 months later from metastasis. To date no one from his office has called or even inquired about her status. I do have to say his chemo infusion nurses were fantastic. If your Endo cancer is typical he can probably help you, if you have MMMT or need research to find a solution, look elsewhere.

Money driven
I need an uncomplicated surgery and his office gave me the cold shoulder and cut ties with me abruptly. The logical conclusion I came to is that this doctor is money driven and if there is no money is to be made on you he cuts you loose. I was surprised because his demeanor is so friendly but it's a false front. He also does unnecessary exams so he can bill this as well.

Dr. Janicek recently preformed a surgery on my wife. I was contacted three times before, during and after the procedure by his staff and immediately after by Dr. Janicek. Very impressed with the care they took with my wife and the effort they took to keep me informed as the day progressed. In addition to this my wife ended up in emergency care a few weeks after the surgery (not related) and Dr. Janicek checked in on her while she was in the hospital. This is a doctor that cares about his patient and their family. Outstanding in my point of view. Thank you sir. Regards, Michael Clark

I have been going to Dr Janicek for about 6 years now. He is an absolutely amazing doctor/surgeon who cares deeply for his patients. His staff is just as amazing and you will get the best care ever at this office. Patients come from across the US to see Dr Janicek for his expertise. I have ovarian cancer and he has kept me going for 6 years so far. Appt times are sometimes delayed but for very good reason. I always feel like, if my appt is delayed, they are assisting someone else that needs them more at that moment.

There are no words to express how grateful I am to have crossed paths with Dr. Janiceck. He is very knowledgeable and experienced; a top notch surgeon. He knew that my cancer wasn’t primary ovarian. He recognized a different condition and facilitated a team approach to deal with a rare cancer. He was part of the team that performed the “mother of all surgeries” on me. He saved me from having 2 separate surgeries and recoveries. He even applied for privileges at another hospital to perform surgery there, so it would be covered by my insurance. His staff was amazing and provided much needed support to get me through a very stressful and scary time between diagnosis and scalpel. I cannot say enough thank you’d to Dr. Janicek and his team.

Just words seem inadequate to express my gratitude for both my husband and myself for the attention and individual care we received. My Primary care physician discovered a very large abdominal mass and was referred to an oncologist. After doing our homework, reading numerous reviews online and obtaining referrals, I called Dr Janicek's office to make an appointment for consult. I was impressed that his office contacted me after hours to help me schedule an appointment. That kind of attention and compentency continued throughout the entire process. Every staff member we met made us feel at home which seemed almost surreal in an oncology office. I chose Dr. Janicek because of his 32 years of experience, all the many positive reviews, online interviews on "you tube" and an hour lecture he presented to other doctors that I also found on "you tube". I thank our Abba Father for His Agape love, His Holy Word, and I am grateful to this gifted surgeon.
