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. Kohagen is an excellent doctor and truly cares about his patients. He is truly top-notch!! Everyone would be blessed to have him as their doctor.

Dr. Kohagen has been doing mine and my husbands routine colonoscopies for many years. So when I found out that I had liver problems I was so happy to see that he would be my specialist! Such a wonderful man and an caring doctor that takes time explaining things. Great bedside manner!!

Dr. Kohagen and staff are wonderful. Dr. Kohagen ran the needed tests to accurately diagnose my issues promptly and throughly. He is generous with his time and responsive through the online portal. He and his staff share my information with my primary care physician and I could not be more pleased. I highly recommend Dr. Kohagen to those experiencing issues with chronic liver disease.
