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.

Does not believe in PASC
This dr never saw me or treated me. I had Covid 19 in November 2020. And after that I was and am still dealing with long haul symptoms. Covid long haul or PASC is recognized by hospitals, the CDC and even the white house released a statement on it. But this guy doesn't believe in it. In addition while no test exists for it, he can judge if you don't have it by your medical records while never meeting you. Should have his license revoked.

This clinic was very good to me, especially with Dr. Evans. The staff has always been very pleasant and wonderful. There is a new Doctor that has a very abrasive disposition. My medications that were prescribed were never given authorization to my insurance company (which just requires one call), after repeated requests to my insurance company and I have had to pay $300.00 for a prescription which is astronomical. There was an issue with my insurance being charged for a visit Where nothing was performed, where I was advised I had to reschedule and on a recorded (which I ensured) three way call with the insurance company the doctor accused me of saying he was committing fraud! The rep for the insurance company even advised he had never encountered a medical professional with such an aggressive disposition. I work for a law firm that works with doctors all the time and have never experienced this type of treatment in my medical or professional interactions from doctors!

Dr was fine but very stingy with refills for simple BP meds. Raised self pay from $90 to $165. I can never afford to go back. Took blood but I never heard back what the results were since Jan. I didn't call to check either as phone staff not that helpful.

This Doctor is not a bad Doctor, most of us come into Doctors office in a bad way and want thing our way. I been with this Doctor for 11 years and i live around African culture for 30 years in Boston, it a man being a man. Not American but how he was raise. Look inside his heart its beautiful. If he was nice he would not keep his staff. Dr and staff come and go in Charleston but his staff stay with him. That's the same reason i do, we accept his Love in his way not our way. They are dam good people. I have the best PA Evan. God is good. Broderick

I have been a patient of Dr. E for several months now... He has a bad attitude, not compassionate to his patient needs, he doesn't listen, has a bad accent, and claims he can't help me with my health issues I telling him I have... How unprofessional is that??? If anything, you should at least consider referring me to someone that can assist me not just refuse me altogether... would not recommend him to anyone I know...

Dr.Etikerentse has been a wonderful doctor to me. I suffer from a very painful chronic condition and he has helped to get me on the right path. He is kind, patient, he listens and most importantly he cares. The staff at the North Charleston office is always kind and friendly to me. I have already recommended this Doctor to my family and friends and I'll continue to do so.

Dr. Etikerentse is extremely knowledgeable about many of the issues that I have gone to him for. He listens to me and is patient with me. I am very pleased with care I have received from him in his office by him, and his PA Svetlana, not so much with his ancillary staff.

This Dr Etikerentse was my hospitalist at Trident Hospital. First , I could barely understand what he was saying; second: he spent all of 2 minutes with me per day while I was a patient at Trident Hospital; last he sent me a bill for $250.00/visit. Absolutely not reasonable and customary charges. It's called stealing and taking advantage of the healthcare system. I called his office and asked for a detail of his visits with me. I delayed paying the bill and he put me up for collection.

Was admitted to ER by Etikerentse. He spent about 15 seconds a day following up during his rounds. Can hardly understand him due to broken English. Discharged me and forgot to sign prescriptions. had to return and wait for them to find him. Mention his name around any doctor or nurse at Trident Medical and watch their reaction. He is a classic example of a quack. What do you call a person who graduates last from medical school ? Doctor-get the picture?
