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.

Dr. Saracheck is one of the BEST Doctors I have ever seen. He is so nice, knowledgeable and cares about his patients.

I like Dr Sarachek a lot, he listens very well and offers solutions to some of my issues and is willing to do some small things like your cleaning, get rid of skin tags that other doctors don't like to waste their time on. He's very helpful. He encourages me to get the ammonia shot and the shingles shot every time I see him. Last time due to his insistence I finally got the ammonia shot. I think he is a caring doctor.

It was a couple months to find a time to schedule my physical. That was the only issue, but the Dr. and the Support staff are all great. Have been with this doctor for years and will be with him for many years to come.
