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.

Positive experience
Great experience as a first-timer. I barely waited to be helped when I checked in. The staff and Dr. Kunkel were all very friendly and helpful. I especially loved how Dr. Kunkel really took his time to explain my condition to me as well as my treatment options. I had a great visit and the doctor’s demeanor has really put me at ease so I highly recommend this clinic.

Likeable, confident, and insightful young man. I needed a small wart removed on my forehead. He did it himself right then and there - took him 5 minutes. I was impressed with his flexibility and can-do attitude. My kind of doctor.

My old doctor moved on so i was assigned dr. kunkel (who i didn't know was a DO) i saw him in person once and another time on video. I'm 70 and in good health, the man has no personality and made some mistakes prescribing a medication, after my visit I immediately switched doctors.

Neighbor apologizes for referral to Dr. Kunkel
My neighbor referred me to Dr. Kunkel. At that time, she was happy with him. I saw him at his Kendall Yards office. It was not a good experience. I found him to be close minded and rigid. I felt he was overwhelmed by my multiple health issues & dismissive of me. I did not feel heard or respected and I did not feel safe. Interestingly, about a week after my appointment, my neighbor stopped by to apologize for referring me to Dr. Kunkel. She told me that she had had a follow up appointment with him and what she shared echoed my experience. I wanted a compassionate, intelligent doctor that listened without interrupting and dismissing me, a doctor that I could work with, one that would include me in my medical care and not just demand I follow his advice without questioning or input. I do not feel that Dr. Kunkel is that doctor and I won't be returning.
