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.

Have been taking my daughter to him since I moved here in 2014. Wouldn’t have anyone else. Him and his staff are great.

Absolutely bizarre experience.
Dr Apostol has been my kids' Dr. since 2000, no problems until the last few years. The office in general has gone downhill. My daughter developed chronic headaches and the Dr. said it was seasonal allergies, so she started allergy medicine. After a few months with no improvement the Dr. was adamant that it was allergies and said medication could take 6-12 months to help the headaches. He was rude at this visit, but I thought maybe it was my fault because he felt like I was questioning his diagnosis. So after almost a year of taking Flonase/Zyrtec and no improvement with the headaches, we return. He is still adamant that it is seasonal allergies and can be nothing else. He was again snide, rude and hostile that I would even ask if it could be anything else. I am by nature polite and reserved. He took that as an opportunity to talk over me every time I began to speak and imply that I was second-guessing him. His behavior was so out of left-field bizarre that we had to leave mid-visit.
