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.

This doctor only likes surgeries and does not care about the patients. I broke my neck and what should be a small surgery, turned out to be a huge cut in the back of my neck. When I didn’t feel well post-surgery, I asked for an appt with him. His front desk lady, Kathy told me that I couldn’t see him because I was NOT a priority. When I pushed for an appt, she became rude and yelled me. She told me I was not a priority and that I should be fine. I went to another doctor and because of Yapicilar’s work, my neck inverted. Do NOT use this doctor. He doesn’t know what he’s doing and he has the rudest staff in the state. Find someone who will care about you.

My Dad was diagnosed with a large brain tumor. We are extremely fortunate that Dr. Yapicilar was assigned to us that day. He portrays a confidence and competence while remaining kind. He was simply excellent. After 8 hours of intense surgery, he made sure he came to speak with us and gave us the facts in terms we could understand paired with compassion. My Dad is recovering fast. This Dr. is unbelievable and I am grateful for him.

Was a waste of our time. He spent the whole time telling us what he doesn't do, then gave me a name of an orthopedic surgeon.
