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.

Always taken care of by the nurses and staff.

Great first time meeting Dr. Rehak.
I broke my wrist the other day and was sent to Dr. Rehak. He was great at helping me understand what was going on and why we are taking the steps forward we are. I’m very excited to work with him to fix my wrist. The other people at the office were also very kind and caring! I feel I am in good hands!

Very Through!
Dr Rehak is very professional and makes sure he listens to your concerns. He gives you options for treatment based on what you are ready for. He isn't going to do a surgery if it's not 100% necessary for relief.
