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.

Terrible doctor
This guy truly believes that dicogenic issues don't cause pain and that exercise is guaranteed to mostly fix any back problem. I'm 39, been suffering since I was 17, and all he wants to do is give me NSAIDS. I am in pain, and luckily, the PA's at this practice listen better than he does. Just because a peron is younger does not mean they don't suffer. It's the most ridiculous thing I've heard in a long time.If you're under 50, stay away from this guy. He doesn't want to help you.

Horrible Experience with Dr. Malkamaki
I was a patient of Dr. Malkamaki's in Cleveland, Ohio. He provided me with extremely poor care. He was condescending and treated me like a child with his ridiculous baseball analogy to explain my journey to health. He initially took xrays in 2018, and when I asked why I had not update imagining in 2021, he told me that diseases don't progress too much in that length of time. I begged for a steroid injection in my left hip and he finally agreed. His patients were already notified of his leaving. I had the injection, was referred to another physician who ordered updated imaging and was told I needed a total hip replacement. This doctor is very bad and I feel sorry for people who have him as their physician. I had many surgeries and never experience such a bad and negative experience with a medical professional.
