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.

Does not listen to me
I am changing to another doctor. This doctor did not listen to me. I was diagnosed with tyoe-2 diabetes. I live in a retirement community where I am required to eat meals in the dining room. I do not prepare my own meals. I do not have a car to go grocery shopping. This doctor told me to eat 6 smalls meals instead of 3 larger ones. The dining room served 3 meals a day. The doctor told me to eat a lot of fresh fruit and fresh vegetables. I have no choice but eating what is on the menu. This doctor said surely if you told the dining room that you have type 2 diabetes they will fix special meals for you. THEY WILL NOT. DO THAT. i gave the phone number of the nutritionist where I live to the doctor's nurse. The nutrInist told the nurse the situation about meals where I live. that was 6 months ago. when i saw this doctor 2 weeks ago I also told her the way meals are handled where i live. SHE DID NOT BELEIVE ME. I WANT A DOCTOR WHO LISTENS TO WHAT i SAY. I DO NOT REOMMEND THIS DOCTOR.

Dismissive and Dehumanizing
Dr. Lidiya has displayed a shocking disregard for patient careShe abruptly subjected me to now six days of abrupt cold turkey withdrawal without my necessary medication, despite my full compliance with all requirements.This callous act highlights her complete disregard for human life.Her dismissive suggestion to go to the ER if my withdrawal symptoms are that unbearable is not both heartless and unacceptable; it is a flagrant display of disregard for human life and well-being.As a patient, I deserve to be treated with compassion, empathy, and respect. Dr. Lidiya's response completely lacks any shred of these essential qualities. It is as if she devalues my existence as a human being, reducing me to a mere statistic or a problem to be shuffled off elsewhere. I strongly advise against seeking care as she poses a significant threat to well-being. Our health and well-being deserve to be treated with dignity and compassion, qualities that Dr. Lidiya has clearly shown herself to be lacking.

Dr Gutnikova is the most carrying and knowledgeable doctor I ever met. She asked, she listened, she created a plan and followed up! I was shocked that she actually called me to make sure I received all my medications and have clear understanding of how to take them. A+
