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.

Kindest Doctor I've Met
My review is some years later (I'm now 28 and was recommending him to a friend earlier) but I saw Dr TK from ages 7-17 and he was absolutely one of the greatest positive influences of my childhood. He spoke to me as a patient at a level I could understand throughout my formative years and validated the concerns I had that I could not fully describe or understand at that age. Dr TK has a gift for working with both the patients and their parents/guardians that will help any child grow.
