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.

The Better Health Doctor
Started seeing Dr. Eckburg for addiction therapy and over time, as my life was turning around, he began treating me for hormone replacement and really accelerated the fulfillment in my life. He takes the time to understand your very circumstances and offers all paths forward and helps you make the best choices.

I’m from California and since I’ve been here I’ve looked for a dr that would help with my medical needs and not found one. I had an appointment with Dr. Eckburg and I can not say one thing I’m unhappy with. His bedside matter is awesome, truly cared about what was going on in my life and well-being. I have to drive 2 hours to see him, but I have found a winner and that drive is well worth it to me. Thank you so much Dr for making me feel comfortable. I would recommend him to anyone that asks me where is there a good Dr..

Dr. Eckburg put me on Lovenox at Alma Nelson without meeting me when admitted. From Tuesday to Friday I lost 2 pints of blood, went to Emergency room thinking I was having a heart attack. Finally at that point he decide to see me, look at my incision. A nurse told me that my surgeon put me on blood thinner. My surgeon did not prescribe this. Dr. Eckburg put me on a broad spectrum antibiotic and iron pill. I was sent home with a 101 fever Wednesday and had to go in for a second surgery. Document

My name is Jessica, and I've only seen Dr Eckburg a few times so far. I only see him once a month, but every time I see him he really focuses on my needs and just genuinely cares about my well being. He's by FAR THE BEST Dr I have, and that says ALOT because I have like 6 different specialty Dr's. I TOTALLY RECOMMEND Dr Eckburg, HE'S AN AWESOME DR!!!
