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.

I feel very concerned with my brother's treatment by Dr. Tuncer. My brother has stage four cancer and Dr. Tuncer has given up on him and is recommending hospice. There were so many delays in getting in and getting appointments. It feels like we ran out of time because of our choice of care. I was a patient at KU Med for many years and encouraged my family to go here for his care because I thought it was the best hospital system available. It's a choice that consumes me with guilt now. I can't change what happened to us, but I would encourage other cancer patients in the area to explore other options and hospitals.

He was well versed in cancer and how he was going to treat me. I had lung cancer. From the time I was seen it was 2 weeks for chemo and then radiation. I have been in remission for almost 2 years. If it hadn't been for his response I may not of been here now. He is a wonderful DR. thank you for helping me. I am enjoying my life.
