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.

He removed a non cancerous 85 pound ovarian tumor from me ! Was a great Dr. He treated me with great respect and his staff is the best. Nothing but gratitude for him.

Seek other options
I saw Dr. Boike in 2017, as a minor, for ovarian cancer. I am a trangender male and him and his staff at the time were blatantly transphobic to me. He asked very uncomfortable and invasive questions about my genitalia, and when I asked for options on hysterotomy he completely shut down all my arguments(family history & prevention of recurrence, transgender healthcare/transition, no desire to have children) in favor of thinking I might "change my mind one day" to which I countered with adoption and foster care, and he still objected in a very hostile manner, and downright refused. He also was very uncaring, and has a huge ego. Thinks he's the best of the best, and while I didn't have any complications, he's clearly not a great doctor or surgeon considering his Other issues that you can look into.

He was okay, other than having NO bedside manner at all. Also, after doing a surgery, he needs to come out to the waiting room and talk to the family in person, not on the phone, as my husband is hard of hearing and could only get part of what he was saying.

The aftercare & communication is lacking, 1 appointment, a week after MAJOR surgery only to discover a second surgery to correct a human error is needed along with petechiae covering my face left me devastated and afraid of what else I would find. Contacted the office twice with great concern about a fever post op there was not a return call made by the nurse, Denise. Please, if you need after care at all or you experience complications with surgical procedures, reconsider this choice. Beware.

He was angry when I had a second opinion. The Drs at U of M questioned a treatment and that made him angry. I questioned his treatment and he was angry. His surgery was done well but he never even bothered to see me before the surgery, so I met him weeks before the cancer surgery and then saw him again two days after the surgery. Terrible personality for someone who is treating a serious disease.

Well if I could give a negative then that would explain my experience with this man. My family Dr had me go to this Dr for fibroids tumors. Upon a cf scan it showed a large mass, a ft over 12inches and carcinoma cells. He will not return your calls. His staff gives you excuses. He told me on my first visit that the only problem I had was I needed to lose weight and that menopause would take Care of the other problems. He is a jerk and I tell everyone to stay away from him.

My experience was very negative. He was rude and dismissive of my family's concerns while I was hospitalized. He told me how good he was, but his actions didn't follow through. i would never return to him, and I have been warning others about him.

Dr. Boike , by using robotics ,removed Lorna's uterine cancer this summer of 2016.She is currently finishing up with her preventive chemo which was done next door to his practice. We will now go to our winter home in fl. and follow up with some preventive radiation treatments. Dr. Boike has successfully removed a very large cancerous tumor during the hysterectomy he performed on her.Dr Boike is a great person and Dr. He took lots of time with us and explained every thing. His staff is great too

If you have CANCER and need a caring Oncologist, this is NOT your doctor. He is NOT a team player and will NOT work with you or other physicians for the best interest in fighting your cancer. Very self involved and thinks he knows everything. He does NOT ! Suppose to be 'network' doctor with the world-renowned MD Anderson Hospital. He was NOT. Refused to consult MDA to confirm patient treatment. After we went to Houston ourselves, he no longer would treat us. Kicked us out of the office !

The guy is the biggest jerk ever. He refused to consult w/ MD Anderson's network of doctors after we asked several times. Then he refused to treat us after he discovered we went to MDA on own own for a second opinion for the treatment plan. Claims we don't have a 'good patient /doctor relationship' if we don't totally trust his care. Isn't this about the PATIENT and not his ego ? We reported him to the medical chief of staff and recently found out he no longer practices at Covenant. Go figure.
