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.

Staff is awful!
Am transferring to another doctor after being with Dr. Funk for over 40 years! Love Bill but his staff is atrocious. Not professional at all and make you feel like you are bothering them. Asked for records over three weeks ago, no response. Called to ask about records, on hold for over 5 mins. So glad to be leaving and my new doctor is AMAZING!!! Her staff is too!

He is always friendly, and informative. The staff, in general, do their jobs, although smiles can go a long way with patient interactions when in the doctor's office.

Dr Funk has been my Dr for 30 years! He and his staff have not only taken care of me, but my whole family. He is a skilled physician, and cares about his patients. Dr Funk has care for my children since they were infants, and now they are in their mid twenties and he continues to provide care for them. He is one in a million <3

Wow, after being a patient there for years (since I was born) they told me I could no longer be seen. I hadn't been seen for a couple years (2012) as I had been in Florida but the rest of my family has continued to go there. I used to know everyone on staff and everyone used to be very friendly and accommodating. Not any longer
