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.

I have been a patient of Dr Crackower for over 30 years. He is very knowledgeable. He correctly diagnosed me when others didn’t. He listens and answers my questions and concerns. I recommend him to everyone asking for a doctor.

Dr. Crackower is more concerned about making money than anything else. Also he provided me incorrect information. Dr. Crackower has a Therapist on site and I was diagnosed with ADHD. The medicine I am prescribed has made a great improvement in me, but from what he told me was completely wrong. He first said that you have to take it twice a day and never miss a dose because it takes a while to get into your system which is completely false.
