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.

He does not carry the computer with him so he does not know everything that has happened to the patient when presented. He does not ever seem prepared and I was not impressed with his skills he seemed to lack them.

Dr. Bookas does not take the time to listen to you and objects when you suggest the way you should be treated. He does not bring in the computer with him and does not read the notes sent to him by other doctors. I actually fired him as he treated me with disrespect.

God help you if you need to refill a prescription. The protocol requires that pharmacies -- not patients -- contact the doctor's staff. The staff, in my case, then repeatedly failed to respond to the pharmacy's prescription requests.

If you want a doctor that only cares about money he’s your guy. Terrible staff, that couldn’t care less about their patients. Will NEVER be back.
