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.

I had a great first appointment and am very happy to choose her as my new gastroenterologist.

BEWARE! Creepy Babydolls and Teddy Bears
As soon as I walked in I was greeted by an ENORMOUS amount of baby dolls and Teddy Bears in the waiting room. I was five minutes late for my appointment (because I couldn't find the building location) and the receptionist told me I had to reschedule because I was late and the doctor had other appointments. I explained to her that I couldn't find the building. Mind you, there was nobody but me and the dolls in the waiting room and absolutely no cars parked out front. I have never been treated so poorly on a first office visit. This was my first and last visit. Also, they only accept cash or check for payment.

My husband and i have been going to Dr. K (as we call her) for about 50 years and have had a very good experience with her and her staff. She is very knowledgeable and caring. She will go the extra mile for you when needed. Highly recommend Dr. K!

Dr. Kolaczewski is an EXCELLENT Doctor!! I have 100% trust and faith in her diagnostic and prognostic abilities. She is kind, practical and doesn't need to mince words. She is like the Doctors of times gone by. She is MORE about the patient's treatment and care than her check book. Dr. K. Is a lovely lady and found her natural niche as a formidable and capable Doctor. Excellent, excellent, excellent!!! Come join her family. I am blessed that I was able to do so.

Simply said after 33 years as her patient I still wouldn’t have anyone else. She is the best and treats you like a real person. Treats you like a valued person which is rare in the medical world in today’s medical community.

Dr. Kolaczewski has been the primary care physician for my family for over 20 years. She's personable, takes the time to listen to your concerns and issues, and treats her patents with understanding and respect. Surprisingly hard to find in this day and age.
