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.Kwak was amazing! He listened to all my concerns and questions and really helped me under what was going on and how we can come up with a plan to treat it

This was a follow-up visit with the miraculous Dr Kwak. I was feeling very guilty and worried bc a family crisis made me go off track with my diet and Dr Kwak had worked so well with me to get me on track. Nevertheless, he listened very attentively and made a few tweaks to my medication. I've no doubt I'll be back on track under Dr Kwak's careful supervision!
