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. Dunklebarger is absolutely amazing! I got a septoplasty surgery and he was SO informative, helpful & made me very comfortable! I can finally breathe out of my nose & I am so grateful to have had the best doctor to do my surgery & help me recover along the way. Thank you for changing my life!

He Was totally uninterested and rude. Made me feel like he was wasting his time. I don’t believe my nodule on my thyroid was taken seriously, I had a biopsy done, which showed non cancerous, but borderline in a size that might need to come out. I would like another opinion.

Absolutely my favorite doctor by far. He’s a wonderful doctor and a great, kind person. He makes you feel so welcome, answers all questions and concerns and never seems annoyed or rushed. Very energetic and outgoing as well. He performed a septoplasty/turbinate reduction and FESS (sinus surgery) on me, and I will be forever grateful. I have never breathed or tasted food so well in my entire life. It means the absolute world to me that he basically made my quality of life 100% better.

Dr dunklebarger and his whole staff at his office and summit health made us feel like more than just another patient to treat. The day of my mom's surgery he met with us explained everything in easy to understand terms and then called her the next night after her surgery to check up on her. That's dedication! We would most definitely recommend him to other patients!

I just had met Dr. Dunklebarger and instantly felt comfortable and confident he can help with my breathing issues. One week post op, I can say I would recommend everyone to use Dr. Dunk. He's fantastic, down to earth, his p.a. is phenomenal as well as staff.l which were more than accomodating. I am so pleased with my results so far & can't wait to see what's in the future. I also enjoyed his patient care checking in on me before my surgery, afterwards and called that evening. Great dr.
