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.

Dr. Ariel Marks, Emergency Room Physician
Recently, Dr. Ariel Marks took care of me in the ER at Sequoia Hospital. I found him to very experienced as he quickly understood what was happening to me and performed all of the appropriate tests and treatments for my condition. His discharge instructions and prescriptions were clear and worked very well in helping me to heal. He had a great "bedside manner" and made me feel comfortable that I was receiving good care. I highly recommend him!

Dr. Marks calls it like he sees it and he's been right every time. His experience shows. Wish he had a general practice! He inspires confidence and is easy to talk to.

Dr Marks took care of me after my gallbladder surgery. I could not stop vomiting after surgery. He was kind and listened to my concerns. He explained everything in detail so that i understood tests being performed. He and his staff kept me in the ED until i was feeling better. I felt i received very good care.

Dr. Marks treated my husband in the emergency room at Sequoia Hospital on March 16, 2018. He was professional, thorough, and kind. He explained his findings and answered all our questions. Most importantly he reassured us and worked quickly to order tests and treatments to help my husband expeditiously. He repeatedly checked on his condition and we couldn't have asked for a more attentive doctor. Our overall experience with Dr Marks was excellent.

Dr. Marks was very condescending. He seemed like he didn't want to be there. After getting test results, he insisted everything was normal and we could go home. He didn't ask any questions, sent us home with pain medicine and nothing else. Three days later after going to another doctor we found out that there was in fact something wrong and the doctor prescribed medicine to help, and advised NOT to take the pain medicine that Dr. Marks gave because it was actually making things worse.
