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. Kaplan is a great Dr. He is easy to talk to. Explains everything. He did a hernia surgery on me today. I couldn’t ask for a better experience. I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Kaplan is the most patient, caring doctor I have ever had in Cenla. He is smart and thoughtful and provides the most thought-through option for all patients. He has excellent bedside manner and makes you feel like you’re the only patient he has! Go to him if you want to feel validated and cared for to the Max percent!

I went to see Dr. Kaplan regarding hernia repair. After we discussed the repair surgery and methods, we scheduled my surgery the following week. The method of repair was using the laparoscopy procedure. From the minute I woke from the anesthesia to this day, I have "not" had any pain or side affects from the surgery. I literally walked out the recovery room and got into my truck (passenger side). Dr. Kaplan and his staff are very friendly, informative, and truly professional. Dr. Kaplan is a gifted surgeon.
