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.

Would not recommend
Very rude and unprofessional. Lacks understanding and bed side manners. Would not recommend this doctor to anyone. This was my first time meeting him and his tone and communication was very unprofessional and belittling.

Dr. Karst was kind, patient, and thorough. He never made me feel like he was in a rush and took time to answer all of my questions. I was so impressed with him and nurse Karen.

I am extremely happy with Doctor and staff. A wound that usually takes 12 weeks to heal closed up in 9 weeks. Very satisfied.
