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.

Invested, Sincere, Knowledgeable
Dr. Peter Coutlakis has been one of my doctors since about 2015. I have struggled for much of my adult life with constant fatigue and aches and pains. Dr. Coutlakis has taken the time to really get to know me, listen fully, and form a relationship with me. He is truly caring and compassionate, and he is not about to give up until he figures out the best way to help you. Aches and pains can be tricky, as can bloodwork results and medications. What I appreciate about Dr. Coutlakis is his attention to how I feel, what seems to work and what doesn't, and his dedication to finding ways to help ease my pain and make movement more comfortable. I have gone through long patches of time where a quick visit with Dr. C to try something new would be all I would need for 6-12 months. Sometimes, new things flare up. Recently, this was the case. I have been struggling and left a message with his nurse. The next morning, first thing, he was on the phone taking time to talk to me personally. The best!

Dr. Coutlakis is Great! Apparently I did something wrong... Staff were like "pit bull guards" whenever I called. After retirement I had one year where he was not on my provider list. Various excuses prevented me from becoming a patient again. Staff stalled me by telling me they did not have a calendar for the new upcoming year (I called 2x), told me he was only working limited hours so no appts available, then it had been 2 yrs. since I had seen him so I would be considered a new patient and he was not taking new patients. I finally gave up! Now I see he taking new patients. He needs to pay attention to his staff.

I have been a patient for a number of years and think the world of Dr. Coutlakis. I have recommended him to numerous people. He takes the time to listen and we discuss any and all adjustments to my treatment. I feel we have a partnership in my care.

I've been a patient of Dr Coutlakis's since 05, my Husband since 16. I LOVE him! I am SHOCKED he doesn't have ALL 5 *s! He is caring, very thorough, EXTREMELY knowledgeable, never rushes you. He is down to earth and explains EVERYTHING where you can easily and CLEARLY understand it. He truly cares about his patients & that is VERY hard to find these days! I trust Dr. C implicitly! He even comes to get his patients from waiting room HIMSELF, not the Nurse (like ALL other Dr's)
