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.

Maybe too busy? Patients fall thru cracks
Not great. I had double vision and it was my eye Dr. that insisted I call my primary again after a recent physical. While they put me on meds - there was never a follow up call. Also had a lung issue/pain in side that was down played until I insisted on an x-ray where they discovered a "shadow". Still dealing with that at moment. Have not heard a peep from his office about it!

Dr. Corkins and his staff ALWAYS take time to listen which is a lost art today! I believe I have received the best medical care since becoming a patient of Dr. Corkins two years ago. In addition South Shore Medical Center is a great facility with almost everything under one roof. Scheduling appointments for doctor visits, labs, Xray, etc. are convenient. Everyone has the patient's best interest at heart.
