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 have referred several people to Dr, Kariouki and they have gone and loved him as I do.

This was my first visit with Dr. Kariuki and I was very impressed. He practiced hand hygiene both before and after my exam, he asked important questions and was genuinely interested in my responses. The visit was very productive and I left feeling well taken care of by the physician and MA. The front desk staff was very nice and did an amazing job with completing my registration and scheduling my follow up appointments.

Every time I see Dr. Kariuki he is so very warm and kind. He is not only very professional he is also a joy to engage with. I am so grateful that he takes the time to not only listen to any questions or concerns I have and he always explains what is probably complex medical information in a way that I am able to easily understand. Additionally, his polite nature is very welcoming and it is fantastic that he is encouraging when celebrating triumphs along the health journey- even minor ones. I can't say it enough, he's an awesome doctor and person; please take care of him BSW- you've got a gem!
