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.

Incredibly rude and unprofessional. My family member had a complication after a simple surgery where he was supposed to just take out his appendix. He was in the hospital for weeks. Dr. Guner saw him only once or twice and was incredibly rude. Do not recommend him at all!

Dr. Guner is a very sincere, caring person, not to mention he is an amazing surgeon. He makes himself easily available so that his patients never feel alone in caring for their child. We are grateful that he chose the pediatric surgery profession.
