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.

Excellent care
DrTurakhia is an excellent physician and his nurse Crystal is efficient and friendly. I will miss him when he retires; he was my physician for many years.

On my first visit, Dr. Turakhia found a problem with my mitral valve. He set me up with specialists. Surgery ensued. I had no idea. I’m pretty sure Dr. Turakhia saved my life.

Yes, I would recommend Dr. T to ALL of my friends and family. I have recommended him frequently. He has several patients because I recommended him to them. My last visit was very pleasant. I did not have to wait very long. In fact, I did not even finish filling out a questionnaire & writing my check out before I was called to go to the room. The check up was very thorough. All questions were answered & I got to discuss every medical issue or problem that I had. It was a good visit.

I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND DR. TURAKHIA TO EVERYBODY. HE IS VERY "STRICT", BUT I APPRECIATE THAT. HE EVEN TAKES THE TIME TO TALK TO ME AND ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS I MAY HAVE. I HAVE NEVER HAD A DOCTOR THAT WAS AS THOROUGH AND KNOWLEDGEABLE AS DR. TURAKHIA. HIS STAFF IS AMAZING TOO! FROM THE RECEPTIONIST WHO ALWAYS KNOWS MY NAME AND GREETS ME WITH A SMILE EVERYTIME I COME, TO HIS NURSES KAREN AND KRISTIN, AS WELL AS THE OTHER LADIES IN THE BACK BEHIND THE DESK. IF YOU CALL THEY WILL CALL YOU BACK. THEY ALWAYS GET ME IN EVEN IF I NEED TO GET AN APPOINTMENT THAT I DID NOT EXPECT, SUCH AS MY LAST VISIT OF A A KNEE INJURY. DR. TURAKHIA PROBABLY SAVED MY LIFE AND STILL CONTINUES TO TRY TO GET ME TO TAKE BETTER CARE OF MYSELF. I LOVE DR. TURAKHIA AND EVERYBODY IN HIS OFFICE. 5 STARS FOR SURE!!

Dr Turakhia has been my primary physician for many years and I have and will continue to recommend him. He takes time to provide the personal care for each patient. He is the first physician that will call me personally with any issues. He is experienced and thoughtful. I also highly commend his nurses who treat me perfectly and they also know their nursing skills well.
