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.

Excellent Doctor
Dr. A was very thorough from the start and Inspired confidence and a sense of tranquility in his explanations of procedures and recommendations. Fell lucky to have found him.

Outstanding physician and human being
He helped our family through a traumatic time 14 years ago, and he once again was helpful on my recent visit. Expert, caring, and blessed with strong interpersonal skills, he was thorough, clear, and courteous.

A Doctor Who Listens & Explains
Dr. A. reminds me the old school doctors by actually talking to me and not treating me as if I was an airplane being assembled on a production line. Many other healthcare professionals I have dealt with just seem to want to check a box and move me on to the next station.

Appointments with Dr. Aksentijevich are always informative and reassuring because his demeanor allows for caring for the whole patient. He is kind, caring and extremely thorough in his exams and testing. I would recommend Dr. A for anyone who values a doctor who addresses both the physical and emotional side of cancer treatment. As a side note, the staff in Dr. A’s office, from the front desk personnel to the lab techs to the patient care advocates are helpful and make the experience seamless.
