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. Dobrescu is really good with my mother and explains the tests and course of care that benefits my mom. When a lot of explaining needs to be done Dr. Dobrescu is great. We need more doctors that can help us make the best prevention of a healthy heart while maintaining a balance.

By far the best doctor I have ever encountered. Dr. Dobrescu is patient and explains everything thoroughly. unlike any other doctor I have encountered. His level of care and compassion makes you feel like family, and he always gives you his all. He is also extremely knowledgeable with the entire medical field and he's greatly respected among all his peers. If there was a more than 5 star option I would definitely give it. By far the best doctor!!!
