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.

Should have his license revoked
Not sure who is writing the positive reviews but he probably pays for them and they are bots. I don’t think he’s a real doctor. I had the most unprofessional session with him and he won’t share my results. My attorney can’t even get my results from his office. He called another person the b word to me and left mid sentence and says “got to give an injection” and was incredibly weird and neurotic. I don’t think he should be around people. This man needs a new career. Now my attorney needs to find another nurologist because this guy can’t do his job. And it’s read my results.

Dr. Okhovat has helped me greatly over the last several years. I was unable to work a 5-day week until he correctly identified my medical issue and prescribed several helpful alternatives to solve my problem. He has demonstrated a higher level of caring and compassionate than most other physicians that I have encountered.

I had a car accident and my orthopedic surgeon recommended Dr Okhovat. Staff is friendly & efficient. The Doctor has great bedside manner & makes you feel at ease. Especially the EMG nerve test was not what I expected at all. It was not pleasant but he was informative & helped me through the painful process. Wear comfortable clothing when getting an EMG test and do not wear any lotions.

Dr Okhovat is the Dr you want to see if you want a Dr to truly care about you. He isn't just a Dr that writes a prescription and sends you on your way. Dr Okhavot makes sure all your questions are answered. No long waiting and yet you are never rushed out. What's even more amazing is that every single person that works for Dr. Okhavot is kind and caring and happy to see you. This Dr is the one you are looking for if you want great medical care with some old fashion respect. Every patient matters

I have seen a handful of pain doctors and here is what makes Dr Okhovat different. He doesn't just write scrips he looks at X-rays we talk about all pain relief options. I am not interested in a doctor who won't even request an X-ray. I want to know improvement not where and why. He was my Dr for 5 years and by far the best! I moved otherwise I would still be seeing him. Desert to far to commute! Ty Dr Ohkovat!!!
