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.

Dr. Dachs lacks care and understanding for his patients. He struggles to provide adequate care and doesn't strive to solve a patient's concerns. Instead, he's seeing how he can get you out of the office the quickest. I came in complaining of dizziness and hives and left with no answers other than, "You can get hives from anything, it's nothing to worry about." along with a hefty bill. Save your money and request another doctor. He also misdiagnosed a blood clot that I had in the past as a pulled muscle that later spread to my jugular vein and almost killed me. I gave him another chance hoping for better and left questioning the entire medical field due to his existense.

Wonderful Doctor and experience
My very nervous 22 year old daughter went to the ER for a laceration under the chin and needed stitches. Dr. Dachs was kind, wonderful and had a very calming demeanor. He put my daughter at ease and talked her throughout the whole process. Grateful to have Dr. Dachs at the Ellis Medical ER.

They say that if something is good, inform others thereof. Well, my visit to Dr J Dachs was "something good" His friendly welcome, discussion of the problem and the response thereto describing his prognosis that I could understand, explaining in detail the display of the sona and finally the options to fix the problems all very professional Thanks Doc George Young one thing, maybe a coffee machine
