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.

My doctor is extremely caring and patient. Always makes you feel like your his only patient. He listens to all you say and always has a suggestion to improve your healthcare which improves your like. My Dr. Makowski didn’t become a doctor , he became a caring trusting person. I am so lucky to be able to have found a doctor with such a caring heart.

I have been seeing Dr. Makowski for the past 6 years and find him knowledgeable and concerned about my health. His early diagnosis has been most helpful controlling any problems which have arisen.

Dr. Makowski is always well prepared for my appointment, very familiar with my history and likely concerns. His examinations are very thorough. He is a very good listener and never causes you to feel rushed. I recommend him highly.
