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 Gmerek is rated as one of the best doctors I have ever been to. My husband was with me and he likes him very much. His personality is outstanding. Glad to have him for my foot doctor......................

Bad news/good news Type of service: elective surgery Dr. Gmerek elected to put off my surgery due to my glucose level being to high. The risk for infection could be elevated and possible unwanted complications. This was not a risk he was comfortable putting me in. He explained all of the possible scenarios with me and I concurred with his decision. While I was disappointed that this will delay my return to a sport I love.......I respect his decision for patient care.
